Volume 20 Chapter 150 The Strange Paladin

As I stepped down, the communication on Rose's side was immediately interrupted. As a result, I was so frightened that I thought Rose and the others were under my feet, but I stepped on them and caused a landslide and buried them. 【 _】But fortunately, after the communication was interrupted for more than ten seconds, I finally heard Rose's voice again, but it was obvious that the situation on her side was not good, because I heard her coughing.

"What's going on? Why are you coughing?"

Rose coughed several times before replying: "We are near you. The vibration just now was so severe that a lot of soil fell on top of our heads! Half of the passage in front collapsed, but luckily it didn't block the road! "

"It doesn't matter if it's blocked. Just dig upwards and when you reach the ground, shoot a magic bullet into the sky and I'll find you."

Rose thought for a while but refused: "No, we can't go up."

"Why?" I was surprised why Rose refused my proposal.

"It's not that I don't want to merge, but what if the system separates us? Who can guarantee that there is only one main line of the mission? What if this is a branch mission?"

The so-called branch task is a task divided into many branch tasks. All branch tasks must be completed before the main task can be successful. Of course, there are also some branch tasks that do not require the completion of all branch tasks, but completing them all can improve the task evaluation or reduce it. The difficulty of the final main mission. For example, a very classic guild mission in China is to eliminate mutant monsters. The monster in this task is initially invincible. No matter how powerful your guild is, you cannot beat it because it is immune to all attacks. Can't be killed at all. However, there is a key NPC in this mission. This guy can make a kind of medicine. As long as the medicine is sprinkled on the beast meat and let the monster eat it, the monster's invincible state will temporarily disappear for a period of time. However, this NPC was about to die of illness when he was found. If you want him to prepare medicine, you have to help him find medicine to extend his life. This process of finding medicine requires many kinds of ingredients. You can find them all, or you can only find some of them. However, if you don't find them all, the NPC will have a short recovery time after taking the medicine, and then he will wait for you to give him the medicine. If you die during the process of making the poison, then the amount of poison you get to remove the invincible state will decrease. If the amount of medicine is insufficient, the monster will quickly return to the invincible state. This will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of the task. After all, the task time is shortened. Tasks like this are typical distributed tasks. You can complete all branches or only part of them. However, the less you complete, the more difficult the final task will be. It may even turn the main task into an unsolvable task.

Although we have now entered the mission space, the system has not given us any hints about the mission content, so now we can only run around like headless flies. Rose and the others seem to be separated from us in the underground passage now, but there is no guarantee that there will not be a branch mission of a certain distribution mission on their side, so we cannot let them out at all, otherwise we may directly miss a branch mission.

After thinking about it, I nodded and said: "It seems that I want to keep it simple. In this case, you can continue to move along the passage. If you have anything, just contact me.

"OK."

After cutting off the communication, Hong Yue and I started wandering aimlessly in the forest. The call between Rose and me just now was not in secret chat mode, so they both heard it. It’s just that because we don’t know what the mission is now, we don’t know which direction to go in. We can only find a random direction and touch first. Just try your luck. Generally speaking, if there is no prompt for the tasks released by the system, then it must be a minefield that must be hit, that is, the task trigger point is turned into a closed circle. No matter which direction you go, you will always encounter it. task. The system's failure to provide task prompts is simply to increase the exploration element of the task, and will not really prevent players from finding the task.

After we walked in the forest for a while, Hongyue first remembered that we could summon the local undead to ask about the situation. Then, without waiting for our answer, she directly found an undead from under a big tree nearby, and then used the undead resurrection technique to revive it. He wakes up and is ready to ask about the situation here.

Originally, there was nothing wrong with this decision. Generally, I like to do this when I can't find a mission or a path in the game. In fact, it’s not just me, many people in our guild like to do this. First of all, because of the dual role of Essinger’s world-class library and the Temple of Chaos and Order, almost all the players in our guild have learned the art of resurrecting the dead. This low-level undead spell is very useful. Use it when you can't find the way or find the mission information. It can help eight out of ten times. This has become the standard of our guild. Way to deal with it.

However, what is a standard approach that works well elsewhere is problematic here. In fact, the problem was not the undead awakened by Hong Yue, but a group of humans who had just appeared.

Just after Hongyue woke up the undead, a group of people suddenly came out of the woods nearby. Then they saw Hongyue holding the undead's hand and pulling it out of the ground. As a result, this group of people Without saying a word, he immediately assumed a fighting stance.

"Evil necromancer, prepare to accept justice." There are only three people in the opponent's team, which is smaller than ours, and looking at the equipment, we can tell that their strength is far worse than ours. However, the opponent's momentum was not affected at all by the number of people and strength. The woman in white robes standing at the back of the team held a scepter and shouted loudly, and then the two guys in front of her who looked a bit like Templars raised their tower shields and pointed towards them. We rushed over. Looking at their posture, it seems that it is not that they are outnumbered, but that we are outnumbered.

Although we don’t understand what’s going on, there’s no way we can stand here and let people beat us, right? So... so it was normal that the two knights fell down, and then the little girl who seemed to be a priest also lay down together.

As I said before, the combat effectiveness of these three people is not as good as ours at first glance, and their numbers are small, so the victory or defeat can be decided almost in a second. Looking at the two knights who rushed up and the one behind who was giving a eulogy, Hongyue directly hit them with a mental shock. Then the two knights didn't even hum, as if the running robot suddenly lost power. It jumped onto the street, and then slid along the green grass on the ground to our feet with great joy. The pastor lady at the back had relatively strong mental power, so she was not so bad that she could be knocked down by a mental shock. However, even so, she was knocked down and fell to the ground, and her eyes were still a little distracted. It was obvious that been severely affected. A priest who has no one to protect her and is still a little unconscious, what kind of fighting ability do you expect from her? The guy from Night Teleported over and tapped her head lightly with his staff, and then he followed the two knights and rushed into the street.

Although we knocked down three guys in an instant, our mood was not good at all at this time because we felt the violent shaking of the ground.

Generally speaking, if the ground shakes so obviously, there must be a large group of people or monsters approaching. But according to the general routine, we just got three scum, and then a large group of creatures appeared here. If the system is not too idle, use this If the three guys can help us lighten the mood, then these three guys must be setting up the mission. Then, according to general practice, most of their companions will appear later, and then these people will decide what to do based on the routines prepared for them by the system. our attitude. If they are destined to be hostile to us, then they will definitely mistakenly think that we have killed their companions, and then start a war with us. If the system defaults that they will become friendly forces with us, then this matter can probably be explained clearly. However, based on the task difficulty previously prompted by the system, we now have basically no illusions about the latter situation.

Sure enough, the moment we discovered the problem, a large group of knights rushed out of the forest in front of us.

These people were all dressed up like the two people at our feet, and there were obviously guys in white robes in the team, so...

"They killed the Templars! They are heretics." As a guy in a white robe shouted, the guys behind him instantly entered a state of madness, and none of them looked at the person standing opposite. We rushed up to them, and looked at them as if we were already tied lambs, as if we could be kneaded by them at will.

Of course, their feelings are their feelings. Our strength will not be reduced because of their lack of attention. Looking at the crowd rushing towards us, none of us had any intention of explaining, except for the Night Son who didn't like fighting and therefore didn't know much about the situation. Hong Yue has already begun to recite the curse.

"In this case, it's up to me." Holding down the red moon that was about to cast a spell with one hand, I gently rubbed the evil dragon guardian on my finger. The purple-black death mist instantly covered a large area around it. The unicorn warriors who followed me appeared in the forest.

The strength of this group of knights is very low. They are basically just mixed soldiers. Apart from their decent numbers, they have no merit at all. With our attributes, even if we stand there without fighting back or moving, we estimate that they will break through. Our magic shields had to be cut for several hours. It's not cost-effective to waste magic power on such soldiers, so I simply let the Kirin Warriors deal with these knights on our behalf. Anyway, with the combat power of the Kirin Warrior, we won't be able to use it when we encounter the boss, so why not make the best use of it to help us fend off the soldiers.

Although the level of the Kirin Warriors is not high and they are basically useless when dealing with bosses, the so-called Templar Knights in front of them are really scumbag, which is a bit unexpected. I originally thought that the Qilin warriors were going to fight with them for a while, but who knew that as soon as the two sides met, the Qilin warriors on my side just pushed me straight past them like they were chopping melons and vegetables, and the knights did not resist at all. With such power, it felt like a group of kindergarten children and a group of bulls were playing charge face to face, and the group of paladins were kindergarten children. They were overwhelmed by the Kirin warriors almost in an instant. The fighting power of both sides was not the same at all. level.

"The strength of these knights is too bad, aren't they?" Yingyu Shenchu ​​couldn't help but vomited as she watched my Qilin Warrior ravaging the Paladins like they were chopping melons and vegetables.

Hongyue guessed: "I guess this group of people is used to lead to follow-up tasks, and their charge may be just a formality."

I nodded and said, "That should be the case. Otherwise, I really can't explain how the strength of this group of people can be so bad. Their combat power is only at the level of level 400 or 500 players, right? They'll be dead if we just wipe them!" "

Because the strength of the two sides was not at the same level, the battle ended quickly, and the battle ended in less than ten minutes. The Qilin warriors were slightly injured, with only a dozen injured and no deaths. Over eighty of the Paladins on the opposite side were killed and about twenty more were struggling on the ground. If left unchecked, they would die soon.

I walked over and looked at the nearest guy who was struggling. Then I stepped on his chest to stop him from rolling on the ground. Then I put a little more force on my tui and immediately made the guy spit out blood. .

"Tell me, who are you?"

"Bah...you heretics, I want to purify you cough cough cough..." Although the guy was injured like this, his craziness was not less at all, and it seemed to be even more exaggerated.

I helplessly increased the strength of my feet and trampled down this guy's entire chest. Then I looked at the black blood flowing from the corner of his mouth and stretched out his hands without looking at him. I turned around helplessly and said, "It looks like he wants to get it from the prisoner." Intelligence is impossible.”

Hongyue also nodded and said: "These are obviously fanatical believers. Even death cannot threaten them. Fortunately, their combat effectiveness is relatively rubbish. Although they cannot get information, they will not pose any threat to us."

Yingyu Shenchu ​​said: "But these are just minions at first glance. We kill so many at once, what should we do if we lure the boss out?"

"We're not afraid of b0ss, we just can't find the mission. It would be easier if b0ss qualified early."

"It makes sense." Yingyu Shenchu ​​and Hongyue both nodded in agreement. Only the guy from Night paid no attention to our chat and instead studied the corpse on the ground.

Speaking of which, although Son of the Night doesn't like fighting, he's not a pacifist either. The reason why the Son of the Night doesn't like fighting may be because he is lazy, not because of others or fear of blood. You must know that this guy is a necromancer. Have you ever seen a necromancer who is timid and afraid of seeing blood?

"Hey, what are you studying over there, Son of the Night?" Hongyue couldn't help but ask when she saw that Son of the Night was digging through corpses while we were discussing here for a long time.

Ye Zhizi, who was still there quietly studying the corpse, immediately turned around excitedly when he heard Hong Yue's words and said, "Come and see, I found something interesting."

"Fun?" Hong Yue and Ying Yu Shen Hina were both stunned. It was the first time they heard someone say that corpses were fun. The child of the night probably knew where and what they were doing, so he quickly explained: "I'm not talking about corpses!"

"Not a corpse? Then what have you been studying for so long?"

"This." The Son of the Night directly took off the chest armor from the corpse in front of him, and then waved it in front of us.

I curiously took the piece of armor and looked at it, and then tried to put a little more force on my hand. As a result, the armor instantly bent, and it was obvious that the quality was not good. "It's a piece of very soft metal. Is there anything special about it?" I said and handed the armor back.

After taking the piece of chest armor, Ye Zhizhi unfolded it and showed me the inner wall of the chest armor, then pointed at a small, almost invisible symbol on one of the less obvious positions and said: "Do you recognize this? "

I took the piece of armor over and took a closer look, and found the problem. I quickly put my hand on it and tried it, and my guess was immediately confirmed. Hongyue asked curiously from the side: "What on earth is it?"

I directly handed over the armor and said at the same time: "It should be the spirit gathering array."

"What?" Hongyue was also stunned for a moment, and then she confirmed that the thing carved on her chest armor was indeed the spirit gathering array.

The so-called spirit gathering array is actually a magic array that gathers souls, but it is not powerful enough to suck the souls of living people out of the body. Its only function is to suck the souls into the array after someone nearby dies. It is stored in the form of spiritual energy. It can be said that the spirit gathering array is a disguised magic gathering array that mainly absorbs spirit energy, but this kind of thing is usually used by necromancers. After all, "Zero" is a magical game, and various creatures will There is a spirit, and this spirit can be reincarnated or resurrected, but once the spirit is decomposed and absorbed by the spirit gathering array, then this creature will be completely wiped out in this world, so it is said that using other people's Souls are a very evil thing, which is why when we used souls for Hades, we were just like thieves. After all, even obtaining the souls of ordinary people is very evil, and trying to obtain the souls of gods is even more dangerous, as it may anger the gods.

Although the Spirit Gathering Array itself is not a particularly powerful magic array, its function is very simple, and it is very difficult to set up. Even mages who are new to magic arrays can set it up. However, it is a bit strange that such a magic circle, which is barely labeled as exclusive for necromancers, would actually appear on a paladin who is incompatible with necromancers.

"How did you discover this little thing?" Hongyue asked the Son of the Night after looking at the spirit gathering array on her chest armor. Ye Zhizi did not answer but directly pulled a piece of chest armor from a corpse nearby and gave it to Hongyue. After reading it, Hongyue asked in surprise: "Aren't they all there?"

The Night Child nodded. "I checked a dozen corpses, and each one had such a magic circle on them."

"Then it's no accident!" I frowned and said, "It seems that we are very close to our mission."

Ye Zhizi also nodded and said: "At least I know what to do next."

Whenever there is any doubt, as long as you pay attention to the investigation, you will usually find the problem. Now that we have found such a big doubt, we just need to find the source of the doubt. As for where the source is... of course it is the location of the other party's organization.

Although the guys in front of us couldn't provide us with information at all, it was too easy to find where they came from. I released Bailang directly and asked him to follow the scent and search in reverse direction, and soon found a fighting site. This place was obviously a small village, but it was now in ruins. All the buildings were burned down, and there were bloodstains everywhere on the ground, but there was no body.

This village is wrapped in the center of the forest and is not outside the forest, which means that it is obviously a hermit village isolated from the world. However, even though it was a seclusion, the village was still massacred. This means that the people and their enemies were very cruel. We just followed the aura of the paladins to find us here, so it is not difficult to guess that these people should have been killed by the paladins. After all, they are all fanatical believers. Compared with ordinary people, Such people are sometimes even more crazy and cruel. After all, no matter how bad an ordinary bad person is, basic human morality, likes and dislikes will always affect his behavior, but fanatic believers will not. They think that everything they do is just and correct, so they will not feel any psychological burden when killing or maiming others, and they will also have a psychological pleasure that they have done a good thing, so it can be said that these guys are actually better than perverted murderers. Even more dangerous.

Although there are no living people in the village, and there are not even corpses left, there is a new breath coming from here. The group of paladins we killed just now did not bring the corpses of the villagers with them, which means that they must have divided their forces. There were dedicated people who took the corpses back, and the smell left behind when these people left was easier to find. Not to mention Bailang, I could smell the obvious signs of the smell of blood extending out, so we easily chased after the smell of blood.

Because they were carrying a large number of corpses and the forest road itself was not very smooth, the opponent's speed was naturally limited. Compared with them, our speed was much faster, so within twenty minutes we caught up with the guys who left first.

In order to figure out the situation first, we stopped after discovering the opponent's team from a distance. Then I sent the ghost bugs and darts out to investigate the enemy's situation for us first.

According to the feedback information, although the number of people in this team is larger than that of the group we killed, there are obviously more than half of the logistics personnel in the crowd here, which means that there are no logistics personnel in this group at all. A few can fight.

In addition to the personnel information, we also found that except for the cavalry, the team used carriages, and these were two-wheeled carriages specially prepared to adapt to the woodland. This kind of carriage is small and can move in the forest, but because the body is small and has only two wheels, part of the load will be concentrated on the horses pulling the carriage. This structural feature determines that this kind of carriage cannot run fast at all, not to mention that these carriages are obviously overloaded now, and the carriages are all piled high like haystacks - corpses. Yes, not supplies or treasures, but corpses. Corpses of all ages and different ways of dying. Blood dripped onto the ground along the cracks under the car, and the smell we tracked along the way probably came from this.

"These guys are really perverted!" I couldn't help but say after seeing the synchronized visual signals.

Although Hongyue and the others couldn't see what I saw, they also knew that the other party was dragging the corpses of a whole village, so they can understand the situation if they imagine it.

I turned to look at Hongyue and the others, and then asked, "Should we follow them out of the forest or what?"

Hongyue thought for a moment and then said: "Use your ultimate move to destroy those corpses first, then cripple the opponent, leaving a few with stronger mobility and let's run away."

As soon as Hongyue said it, I understood what she meant. If the other party is walking on this kind of road with such a large pile of corpses, it will definitely be extremely slow. If we follow their movement like this, we may not be able to leave the forest until night. And our mission time is limited, so we can't This delay continues. However, if we destroy the corpses and then kill most of them, the remaining people will naturally want to report back to the headquarters first after we leave, and the speed will naturally be faster after the number of the other party's personnel is reduced, even without ours The mount can run fast, at least much faster than dragging a carriage like this.

Once you have a plan in mind, start implementing it. The job of destroying the carriage is naturally the responsibility of Ying Yu Shen Hina. We only have her and Hong Yue's evocation spells that are more powerful here. However, Hong Yue itself is also very good at one-on-one combat, so the ultimate move is left to Ying Yu Shen Hina. .

After a little preparation, Yingyu Shenchu ​​directly threw a super move from the side of the opponent's team, and then half of the team disappeared with a bang. Hong Yue immediately used powerful single-target attack magic after Ying Yu Shen Hina's ultimate move to blow away all the carriages in the remaining half of the convoy.

The team that suddenly suffered such a blow was immediately in chaos, but what made them even more chaotic was yet to come. Just after the group of people confirmed that they were attacked, they suddenly found that their dead companion who had just been attacked got up again. The reason why they were able to confirm that those people were dead without checking...Have you ever seen a person whose frontal muscle tissue has been ripped off and all his internal organs have fallen to the ground and can still stand up and move?

"Necromancer!" A knight shouted to remind everyone, but the voice not only failed to make others be more vigilant, but also attracted Hong Yue's attention. A black magic missile was shot directly from the dense forest. The knight blocked the shield in front of him at the last moment, but he underestimated the magical power of Red Moon.

With a loud bang, the guy instantly exploded into a red mist that filled the sky. Only two severed pieces of tui up to the knee joints were left standing there. The upper part was completely gone.

After the leader was killed, the originally chaotic team became even more chaotic, and at this time, the corpses that had just gotten up began to move. At first, these guys were all stiff and slow and looked easy to deal with. But after a few steps, their speed obviously began to increase, and then jogging gradually turned into running wildly. Finally, some corpses actually lowered their hands and started to look like monkeys. Running, and the speed was surprisingly fast. Several people who were close to him were knocked down by their previous companions before they could react. Then there was a burst of screams and blood and flesh splattering.

"I was wondering how your kid got on the combat power list before. Now I understand a little bit." I patted the Son of Night on the shoulder and said.

Many people don't understand Night's Son's ranking of 103 on the combat power list, but now it seems that it actually makes some sense. At the very least, his violent zombie move is definitely not comparable to the zombie summoning method used by ordinary necromancers. This powerful ultimate move is definitely a powerful skill in multiplayer melee or guild battle mode, and the more people there are, the more useful it will be.

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people left standing in the convoy, the Son of the Night turned to me and asked: "Is it almost done?"

Hongyue said on the other side: "You can start to kill a few of your zombies, otherwise you won't be able to evacuate for a while."

"OK."

With the control of the Son of the Night, the movements of the zombies that were still nimble before gradually slowed down quickly. Then a zombie was chopped down to the ground by a paladin, and as the first zombie fell to the ground, the surrounding people People gradually reacted and began to eliminate the nearby zombies one after another. However, because the strength of these people was really not very good, in the end, even though the Son of the Night deliberately controlled the zombies to die, he still killed most of the remaining people. , in the end, after all the zombies were killed, there were only four people left on the scene, which really made us a little helpless. Encountering such a weak enemy is simply more difficult to deal with than a strong enemy, because if you are not careful, you will overdo it and kill them all.

After killing all the zombies, these people immediately began to check for dead companions who had not turned into corpses. After confirming that there were no living people, the four guys finally divided into two groups. One group ran towards the direction of the previous village. The other group left in the direction of the previous convoy. Hongyue and I understood their intentions just by looking at them. The two guys heading towards the village must have gone to find the group we killed before. As for the two guys leaving in the original direction, they must have gone back to the headquarters to report.

Of course we would not keep the two guys who went to find us to kill them. After killing them directly, we chased them in the direction the other two guys left. Although these two people were already traveling lightly, they were just riding horses after all, and they couldn't compare with our mounts, so they were quickly chased by us.

"I don't know where the headquarters of these guys is, I hope it's not too far away." The Son of the Night said aloud.

Hongyue shook her head and said, "It should be very close."

"How do you know?" The Son of Night asked.

I explained to Hongyue: "The forest here is stuffy and hot. The fact that the other party drove back with the corpse in such a slow carriage means that the distance must not be far, otherwise this cart of corpses would turn into biochemicals in just one day." arms."

The Son of the Night nodded with understanding and said, "That makes sense. So we can reach their headquarters soon."

"It should be very fast, at least no more than four hours." Hongyue affirmed.

In fact, the time we estimated was a bit too long, because the other party did not intend to run back, but went directly to a very special place in the forest. This place is a forest clearing. In the center of the clearing, a huge metal portal stands there. The rotating black hole in the portal seems to be able to swallow everything, making people feel as if they will fall in at any time.

In fact, the two of them had no intention of stopping after arriving at the portal. They just drove their horses up to the base of the portal and ran straight in. Seeing this, we had no choice but to follow and ran to the door.

Although we rushed in just after seeing the other party, we didn't dare to rush in because we didn't know the situation on the other side. In the end, I had to do the work of exploring the path. After releasing a ghost bug, I could easily see the situation on the other side.

The other half of the portal is also in a forest. Judging from the tree species, it is probably the forest we are in now, but we are in the center of the forest, because when we just came down from the sky, there were no trees within our sight. He could see things outside the forest, so he could confirm that this was at least deep in the dense forest, if not the center of the forest. However, the other end of the portal is obviously in the outer area of ​​the forest. Although the portal is not directly located in a place without trees, the surrounding trees are obviously much sparser than here, and those trees are not too high. , at first glance, it looks like a newly grown tree that has only been growing for a few years.

Now that we were sure that no one was guarding the other side, we walked through it boldly. Soon we caught up with the two people in front again, but at this time they had left the woods and entered a road, and because the road conditions improved, their speed had obviously increased.

Looking at these two guys running wildly, we naturally followed them immediately, but we didn't get too close. Instead, we hung far behind. However, I sent the dart out to follow them in front, using the dart's ability to move at the speed of light. , no matter how fast these two are, don't expect to be able to run away.

After chasing two people for less than ten minutes, after passing through a small hilly area, a rather majestic giant city suddenly appeared in front of us. The city covers a large area, and there is a thick city wall made of pure stone on the periphery. Although the ten-foot-high city wall is incomparable to Essinger's city wall, Essinger's city wall is a perverted thing after all. The city's city wall Taken alone, it can still be regarded as an extremely awesome defensive facility. However, even such walls do not appear to be completely safe.

Just after the two knights entered the city, we also arrived at the outer area of ​​the city, and here we can see the city wall more clearly.

Although the city wall seems towering and insurmountable from a distance, when you get closer you can find that it has actually been crossed many times. Because the entire city wall is full of patches of stones of different colors, this shows that the city wall once collapsed in large areas. Those areas of different colors should have been repaired later, because the stones mined in different periods may have come from different sources. The surface is eroded differently due to different storage times, which allows stones from different periods to be distinguished intuitively.

In addition, in addition to the exaggerated-looking patches on the city wall, the wall stacks on the city wall are also missing pieces. At a glance, I found several broken wall stacks, and on the rocks below the city wall You can also see many large and small holes and some traces of damage. One of them near the city gate also has traces of being burned by fire.

"Is this place the front line?" Looking at the scarred city wall, the Son of the Night couldn't help but ask.

Yingyu Shenchu ​​glanced at Qingkuang nearby and said: "There is a forest next to it, where are the enemies?"

"Maybe it's a monster." The Son of the Night guessed.

"I think it's probably because of those people who were killed." Hongyue said.

I nodded and said, "I agree with you."

"It shouldn't be them, right?" Yingyu Shenchu ​​said: "Those guys slaughtered the entire village like chickens, which shows that their strength is not very good. If they had the ability to build the city wall like this, they would not be killed."

"That's not necessarily true." Hongyue said: "The people who were killed looked like ordinary villagers. It seems that even if it is a military power, their ordinary citizens are still easy to deal with. The massacred village was obviously one of the other party's The Paladins who massacred them here were equivalent to high-end force. It was equivalent to using special forces to massacre civilians. Of course, one hit would be accurate, but when other people's troops were combined to fight back, it was just as powerful. It has combat capability. It shouldn’t be difficult to destroy at least a few gaps in the city wall.”

After listening to Hongyue's analysis, Ye Zhizi also felt that it made sense, but before he could say anything, he heard someone in front say: "A few adults don't know where they come from? Can you show us your professional badges?"

At first we didn't realize it, but we didn't realize until we saw the person talking that he was talking to us. Judging from their clothes and the location of the other party, these people are clearly city gate guards, and they clearly want to check us. However, these people are quite discerning, and they understood that we were not easy to bully after just one glance, so although they still stopped us, they spoke extremely politely and kept their posture very low. In this way, we You won't be angry with them.

In fact, anyone who is not an idiot and sees our business will know that we are not easy to mess with. Just like when you see someone stepping out of a luxury car worth tens of millions in the real world, you will naturally not think that the other person is easy to bully. Because we were actually quite far away from the two people in front of us, we didn’t hide and just rode our mounts directly on the road. It's absolutely fine for me to hang my dragon suit as an exhibit in a jewelry store, and Hong Yue's battle mage suit is not ordinary either. We can send Sakurasame Hina to Japan to become a national idol. Her outfit is naturally very eye-catching. All in all, the equipment of the four of us, except for the Children of the Night, looks a bit ordinary, and none of them are cheap. Wearing high-end equipment in the game is the same as driving a luxury car in reality, so even if these guards are forced Yu Zi had no choice but to come forward to inquire and did not dare to show off to us. Instead, he acted as if the hotel doorman was asking the guests if they wanted any special services, which was called polite.

"Sorry, we traveled here from a very far away place and don't know much about the situation here. What is the professional badge you are talking about?"

My lies are coming from my mouth, because our strength is displayed here, so we can say that we are confident. Being calm and calm is enough, and the reason why lies are discovered is because people who lie often lack confidence, which makes people feel unbelievable. But others who spoke so grandly like me couldn’t believe that I was lying.

When the other party heard that we came from a very far away place, he was stunned for a moment, and then said: "If that's the case, then I think some of you must not have professional badges."

"What's wrong? Can't you enter the city without that badge?"

"It doesn't matter if you get it." The guard said with some embarrassment: "This professional badge is a kind of real estate certificate issued by our country's professional appraisal office. It can let others know your profession and level. It is equivalent to an official certificate. If you are a civilian, You can't get this thing, because only strong professionals can get this badge after passing the assessment. Whether you have this badge elsewhere is not a big problem. Anyway, this thing can only be used to prove your strength when you accept employment. , so no, it’s not a big problem. But we are the front line against the Dark Alliance, so in order to prevent the Dark Alliance’s spies from sneaking in, every professional must show a professional badge, because there are no professional identification methods to identify the professional. They are not from the Dark Alliance, so those with badges must not be spies."

"Then what if someone is killed in the wild and his badge is taken away?"

"Don't worry about this." The guard said: "The badge is bound to a person's soul. If someone other than the owner holds it, the badge will become dim and dull. If the owner dies, the badge will shatter. "

"Then what should we do if we don't have a badge?" The Son of the Night asked the key question.

The guard looked at our expressions nervously and said carefully: "Generally speaking, people without badges are absolutely not allowed to enter the city, and they have to be arrested and examined." After saying this, the guard was very careful and careful. After looking at our expressions, he made sure that we didn't mean to get angry before he dared to continue: "But people from the Dark Alliance also know this rule, so if these few people are really from the Dark Alliance, they will definitely not be so arrogant and direct. You came here for us to check."

Hongyue said: "That makes sense, but what should we do now? We are not from your country at all, so naturally we cannot have a badge issued by your country. Can't we enter this city?"

"There is actually a way, and it is very simple." The guard looked at us carefully and said, fearing that we would fall out.

"Tell me, what can I do?"

The first person heard my question and immediately replied: "Actually, there is a professional appraisal institute in our city, we just need a few people to escort us there for appraisal.

The other party's words were polite, but in fact, the so-called escorting him over for identification and arresting him and sending him over for examination actually meant the same thing. So after saying that, the guard started to be careful to avoid us making a sudden move. After all, with our appearance, He said, once a fight actually breaks out, it's hard to say whether we will be caught, but he will definitely be the first to die, so he can't help but be careless.

Although the guy was extremely nervous, we didn't intend to do anything. The dart has sent back a message proving that the two knights entered a temple-like building in the city and never came out, so we are not in a hurry for the time being. As for identifying your profession, this is not a big deal.

However, just as we nodded and agreed to go for identification, and the other party was obviously relieved, an extremely arrogant and impatient voice suddenly intervened. "What's going on over there? Have the badges of those people been checked? Those who don't have badges should be arrested and thrown into prison first. Don't block them there and interfere with others entering the city."

The guard who had negotiated with us before heard this and became obviously nervous again, but Hongyue and I realized at the same time that we had encountered a mentally retarded person! I hope the other party won't be too arrogant, we don't want to start a fight here! ! .
