Chapter 723 Xiao Wu's Reaction
A group of seven people galloped through the underground tunnel.
Four full hours passed.
They just found a dry corner and took a rest.
Wu Xiaode sat there drinking water.
Even when Plantain and Bad Tooth were resting, they surrounded him from left to right.
The captain of the team is called Augustine.
He is a rather rare magic swordsman.
The other two men were brothers, one named Byrd and one named Burton.
Byrd is the Venomancer and Burton is the Heavy.
Along the way, Burton and Plantain were looking for Burton's advice on guns and shooting.
As for the purple-haired woman——
She calls herself "Selina" and is a ghostly assassin.
This team brings together the Spellblade, Venomancer, Heavy, Assassin, and Healer, as well as the Healer's two guardians.
Captain Augustine is quite satisfied with this configuration.
But considering the situation he will face later, he hesitated for a moment, finally stood up and came to Wu Xiaode.
"Xiao Wu, the situation will change rapidly in a while, and your healing technique may be needed."
Augustine said.
"Of course, that's what I do, I don't know how to paddle, so don't worry." Wu Xiaode said with confidence.
"I know, but you don't seem to be very accomplished in healing, so..."
He opened the heavy book and turned to the sacred page.
The giant tree made of holy light suddenly appeared on the paper.
The skill icons on the sacred side floated on the giant tree of light one by one, revealing various visions.
"Let's learn a stronger skill first. I know that your sacred side is very expensive. This is the compensation the team provides for you."
Augustine said.
Wu Xiaode happily said: "Thank you Captain."
It was really interesting for the other party to do this, and he also felt that he needed to strengthen the skills on the sacred side, so he chose carefully.
not for a while.
Wu Xiaode pointed to one of the icons and said, "I choose this."
Augustine glanced at it, pressed his hand on the page, and whispered an obscure incantation.
The sacred tree of light suddenly lit up.
The icon turned into a golden light and hit Wu Xiaode directly.
In an instant, lines of small ice crystal characters appeared:
"By relying on the power of the book, you have practiced the sacred side skills:"
"Fair trial."
"When you identify the target as holy, the healing effect increases by 10%-100%; when you identify the target as evil, all damage effects on the target increase by 10%-100%."
"How to use: Under the holy witness, conduct trial certification on the target."
"(The cost you pay will determine the value of the effect, up to 100%.)"
The others looked at it and nodded slightly.
This skill is both offensive and defensive. It can not only help the team attack, but also better heal everyone's injuries. It is indeed a good team battle skill.
"Strange, we have penetrated into the territory of the lizardmen, but we have not been attacked by them."
Augustine said.
"The magic powder I released didn't respond at all, as if they didn't bother to track it down," Bird said.
"Let's go after resting, don't give the lizard people a chance to entangle us." Selina said.
Wu Xiaode looked towards her.
After hours of hard work, everyone else was panting and sweating.
She acted like nothing happened.
Everyone hasten to rest.
five minutes later.
Augustine asked everyone to prepare to leave.
The second trek begins.
Three hours later.
People are crossing a broken bridge.
——Wu Xiaode never expected to see such a majestic bridge deep underground.
As for the others—
Plantain and Tooth have no idea what this means.
Augustine and others had expected it.
"Here we go, cross this bridge and we'll be there."
Augustine said excitedly.
Wu Xiaode was about to walk forward when he suddenly found that Selina stopped in her tracks.
She glanced at herself, then speeded up and ran forward first.
what's the situation?
Wu Xiaode was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized it.
She seemed to deliberately distance herself from herself, looking like——
avoid arousing suspicion.
I don't know her very well, so what should she avoid?
An ominous thought crashed into Wu Xiaode's mind.
At this moment, he made a seemingly completely irrelevant decision without hesitation.
"lizard Man……"
"All come, hurry up!"
With a thought, he ordered to the shadow follower on the Book of the Dead.
this moment.
Selina just glanced at him, and ran forward quickly.
Others are observing the condition of the bridge.
Wu Xiaode issued the command to summon the lizardman in his heart, without pausing even for half a second, he opened his mouth and said loudly:
"I designate the team members around me as divine agents, and all existences that are malicious to us are evil!"
As he read, he turned the ring and released a pile of gold bricks, which fell to the ground in a crash, forming a hill.
Selina suddenly turned her head and gave him a strange look.
The clock ticks.
——From her first glance at Wu Xiaode to when Wu Xiaode summoned the Lizardman, launched a fair trial, and released a pile of gold bricks, just two seconds had passed.
The second hand jumped again.
third second.
The holy light fell from the void and descended on everyone.
The healing effect increased by 100%!
Feeling the divine power, Augustine said vigilantly:
"Xiao Wu, what did you find?"
Before Wu Xiaode could speak, he suddenly felt the void around him fluctuate.
Instantly.
Two lines of small luminous characters floated in the void:
"Nine Luminaries Sequence is about to add reinforcements for you."
"No reinforcements!" Wu Xiaode said loudly in his heart, "I clearly said that I was afraid of being exposed, but in the end people kept coming to kill me. Sequence, do you want to complete this legendary mission?"
The voice did not fall.
Augustine's expression changed, he took out the book, and quickly turned to a certain page.
"This guy is a servant of the sequence!"
Augustine said angrily.
Bird and Burton were about to make a move.
Steep Mutation——
There was a wave of fluctuation in the void, and dozens of figures quietly emerged.
—They're teleporting!
Augustine had already drawn out his magic sword, but when he saw the battle, he immediately subconsciously understood the current situation.
"It's a trap of the sequence! Don't fall for the trick, go back quickly—retreat to the ruins!"
he roared loudly.
Byrd and Burton immediately closed their moves and ran towards the opposite side of the bridge with him.
Only Wu Xiaode backed away expressionlessly.
He exited the bridge and said:
"Ready to fight."
The voice fell.
Although Plantain and Baoya were still confused, they were immediately ready to fight.
Wu Xiaode glanced at Selina from afar.
"Jiu Yao can't do this legendary task at all. Its organizational structure is rubbish, and it will only destroy the whole situation."
Wu Xiaode said via voice transmission.
Selina responded with a complicated expression, "Did you notice the clue when I glanced at you just now?"
"Yes," Wu Xiaode admitted generously, "I guess you stayed away from me because something happened to me that you would not be able to intervene in."
"Your reaction is quite amazing, but... Jiu Yao has never been flexible..."
Salina sighed, turned around to join Augustine, and ran towards the depths of the bridge.
At this point the transfer is complete.
Dozens of figures quietly appeared not far from Wu Xiaode.
Festos, the chairman of the Jiuyao Executive Committee.
as well as--
Dozens of heavily armed servants.
"Trash, you actually asked me to kill you once. Your life is glorious enough."
Phaistos said viciously.
Wu Xiaode said calmly:
"I'm completing the legendary mission for the Jiuyao sequence. I don't believe that you dare to kill me under its watchful eye."
He continued:
"Jiu Yao, President Phaistos didn't teleport early or late, but chose this time to activate the sequence and teleport here; I have already been excluded from the human team, which is destroying the legendary mission."
Phaistos was about to make a move immediately, but when he heard him say that, he suddenly stopped.
He made a calm gesture to his subordinates.
"Wait a minute, I will let him fall into the deepest despair, and then slowly torture him to death."
Phaistos said playfully.
He looked at the line of small glowing characters in the air, and said:
"Now I am in charge of this legendary mission, and all the original mission personnel will be eliminated."
The luminous small characters change:
"Cutting out."
"Current mission staff: Wu Xiaode, Plantain, and Baoya have been kicked out of the current legendary mission."
Wu Xiaode also took a look, a little surprised.
No one has ever completed this legendary task, yet Phaistos is willing to take it?
Only to hear Phaistos say again:
"Spend my merit points and refuse this mission for me."
The illuminated small print changes again:
"The current number of executors for the legendary task is: 0."
"Mission failed again."
Phaistos laughed loudly, shook his head and said:
"Naive, so naive, I don't know why I'm feeling uneasy."
"but--"
"If I kill you now, I will be at ease."
Wu Xiaode listened carefully, also looked at the line of small luminous characters, and then said:
"It's really humble. Is this the sequence that belongs to the saint? You have been played by your subordinates."
"I'll never work for you again, trash sequence."
The voice just fell.
There was a rustling sound in the surrounding darkness.
Countless lizardmen appeared one after another, densely covering the entire tunnel and bridge.
In the brief, suffocating silence—
Wu Xiaode suddenly let out a laugh, strands of black light emerged from his body, and flew vertically into the air, manifesting the endless vortex of malice.
"Guess who survived?"
He said in a teasing tone.
