Stealing the protagonist's chance at the beginning

"Grass, there is a shady plot!"

"NPC can be bought privately? Take it!"

"Zhao Yi, you are going too far, actually using this method."

"Crooked? GM? I want to report someone for playing unfairly! That's right, it's that guy!"

However, the players were yelling, but their strength was not as good as others, and they didn't dare to really offend a few NPC transcendents. After all, during the first test period, they had no other place to go except Novice Village.

In this case, he could only back away obediently, and at the same time watched Xu Fei take the shot with envy and hatred, and secretly made circles and crosses in his heart to curse him for missing the shot.

There is one thing to say, Xu Fei has never shot a bow and arrow before, especially one hand is still corroded by silver rust, which is very inconvenient to use.

Fortunately, the strength in the middle stage of body training is here, no matter how uncomfortable it is, it is still no problem to open the bow.And the black tree puppet is so big, it's almost a stationary target, and the distance is only twenty or thirty steps away, so it's really not that difficult to hit it!

Xu Fei first used two ordinary arrows to find out his feeling, checked his strength and accuracy by the way, and then shot three arrows with red flame symbols on them in succession, and launched a final attack on the already severely injured black tree puppet. !

The nearly extinguished flame spread again, completely turning the black giant tree into a sea of ​​flames.

In the fierce burning, the black tree puppet stopped struggling, and was burned to ashes at a sudden speed up by a hundred times, and then turned into fly ash and was blown away!

Only a half-meter-square piece of bark covered with burls was left on the spot.

Seeing the coagulation of extraordinary spiritual remains, Zhou Shen finally showed a look of joy on his face, and walked up quickly.

Xu Fei had already got what he wanted most, so he naturally had no idea about this bark. He just looked at the kill prompt displayed by the system happily.

"You killed the resentment-level strange black tree puppet, and got 17 points of life source (basic reward)!"

"The higher the level to kill the enemy, the reward will get an additional bonus, up to 100%!"

"Congratulations, you have obtained a total of 34 life sources!"

Um? "Only" 34 points?

Xu Fei was a little surprised. Although this number is already amazing, compared with the previous reward for killing the black-robed man, it seems not enough.

In his personal feeling, the challenge difficulty of the black tree puppet should be stronger than that of the black robed man.

If it wasn't for Bai Yuanzhi who happened to have a monster that could restrain it, let alone kill it, the players might not know who the real murderer is until now!

But the fact is that the reward for killing the man in black is higher.

Why is this happening?

After a short period of doubt and thinking, Xu Fei thought of a possibility. The reduction of rewards should be related to the contribution to the battle.

Although the black-robed man was injured, it wasn't caused by others, but the backlash he received when he stepped up and cast spells.Later, when Xu Fei seized the opportunity to kill him, he contributed all the damage.But it was different when killing the Black Tree Puppet. The Huaizhuang extraordinary people were the main force, and Xu Fei was only participating at most.

In addition, when he was checking the rewards, the faces of other players also changed, and they were pleasantly surprised.

"Hey, I got 1 point of life because of participating in the battle!"

"I got 2.8 points! Among them, 1 point is the participation reward, and the other 1.8 points are the reward for killing the tree puppet, and there is a percentage bonus!"

"I have that too!"

"Did the system count the damage from killing the tree puppet before as the combat power of killing the blackthorn tree puppet?" Some players guessed the truth by unintentional words.

"We just participated in killing ordinary tree puppets, and we can all get one or two points of life. Isn't this guy Zhao Yi rich?"

"Maybe I can get at least 5 points."

"The layout is too small bro, I guess at least 10 o'clock!"

"Someone is sore, I won't tell who it is."

In any case, with the participation award, the surviving players finally felt a little more comfortable.

Of course, if they knew exactly how much life source Xu Fei got, they might turn into a broken vinegar altar again!

.........

With the killing of the Black Tree Puppet, the accident that brought huge losses to Huai Village and Qingmu Village finally came to an end.

After simply dealing with the injuries of the wounded, how to deal with the aftermath became a difficult problem for the three extraordinary people.

On the one hand, they should try their best to bring back the bodies of the war dead and the black-robed man on both sides, and transport Bai Yuanzhi in the state of sapphire sculpture back to the village for rescue as soon as possible; A lot of supplies came.

Originally, after Huaizhuang's team merged with the people left behind by the Qingmu Village caravan, they would have enough manpower to transport all the supplies back.

But after the Qingmu Village caravan was completely wiped out, with the dozen or twenty wounded, they might not even be able to take half of their supplies.

This is bound to make some heart-wrenching trade-offs!

Chapter 54

For the Huaizhuang villagers living in the gray mist, it is common for them to live in hardship and lack of various resources, so they have developed a good style of careful planning in everything.

They never thought that one day they would worry about what they discarded.

The key is that the thing to throw away is not 01:30, but enough goods to fill nearly ten carriages!

Among them are food, oil and salt sauce, cloth, leather, iron ingots for making farm tools, weapons and armor, and various basic extraordinary resources...

With such a dazzling array of goods, the NPCs who saw them were both excited and melancholy.

At any time, extraordinary resources must be taken away, and part of the food must also be taken away. As for other goods, it is different for the beholder.

After some quarreling, Zhou Shen and the others finally made a decision.

After the busy loading, the surviving NPC guards and part-time drivers started their return journey with the goods that had shrunk by half and the bodies of the war dead.

When the players were awakened by Xu Fei, the black-robed man had already been killed by him, and the three extraordinary men had also woken up, so they didn't know how the situation of the great headwind was reversed.On the way back, they could only discuss and deduce the cause and effect, and at the same time guess the identity of the man in black.

He said everything, but only Xu Fei, who personally killed the black-robed man, got some clues from the system's kill announcement.

Worship the Cultists in Black!

Xu Fei asked Zhou Shen and the others this question, and got an answer quickly.

"Judging from the faceless statue pendant on the man in the black robe, he should be a cult worshiper."

Zhou Shen had limited knowledge of the Worshiping Cult, and he didn't know what level the black-clothed cultists were, so he only shared some information he knew.

"The so-called Worshipers are actually a group of lunatics. They think that human beings are doomed, so they must accept the existence of weirdness and weirdness, and they believe in a weirdness that is said to be an 'unknowable level', thinking that it is their heavenly father and savior. host."

Saying this, Zhou Shen showed a disdainful smile, and said in a self-deprecating tone: "Fortunately, our Huaizhuang is too small, and we don't like worshiping the deceitful religion. I heard that Qingmuzhai and Baili Mountain City are big places. Relatively active."

Xu Fei silently memorized Zhou Shen's words, and asked again: "Since the worshipers of the Sinister Cult look down on our side, why did they attack us? Besides, can Weiwei really respond to the sacrifices of the Sly Sect?"

Zhou Shen said uncertainly: "That person should have come from Bai Yuanzhi, and we were just unlucky to be implicated. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that they have received news of the arrival of a foreigner and came here just for you. "

This speculation is still very convincing, infinitely close to the truth.

"As for the weird statue in the legend, it's hard to say whether it will respond to the priests worshiping the ghost religion." Zhou Shen's eyes showed fear, and he was unwilling to discuss this topic.

It's weird and strange, and anything can happen, let alone "agnostic level".

However, in Zhou Shen's view, the biggest possibility is the wishful thinking of the cultists.

After all, it is a group of neuropathy, which cannot be deduced with ordinary people's thinking.

.........

The rest of the journey was spent chatting with Xu Fei and Zhou Shen, and occasionally asking for some knowledge about cultivation and transcendence.

Perhaps it was because encountering the black tree puppets had used up all their bad luck, and on the way back, they encountered no other threats except for two unqualified monsters.

Before the end of the second half of the white night, the hurrying team passed the stream with blue lotus leaves and silver jellyfish floating.

The players are deeply impressed by the scenery here, knowing that it is less than ten miles away from Huaizhuang, so it can be said that it is close at hand.

But just when everyone was generally relaxed, a new accident happened.

In the gray mist not far in front of them, grotesque and abstract color blocks like oil paintings quietly emerged.

The NPC team members who were leading the car were no strangers to this kind of scenery, so they stopped quickly.

"There are signs of space-time disorder ahead!"

When the news spread, the NPCs suddenly became nervous.

It was a coincidence that the place where the space-time chaos descended at this time happened to be stuck on their way back.

Although it has not yet fully arrived, it is possible to take some risks and use the power of the talisman lamp to forcibly rush over, but even when they set off in the morning, Zhou Shen and others will not risk the lives of their entire team, let alone now Everyone is in bad shape.

"Quick, retreat!"

"Retreat a hundred steps and stay on the sidelines!"

With an order, the carriages full of goods turned around immediately, and retreated a hundred steps back as promised, just a little more, and then waited and watched vigilantly.

In the gray fog ahead, the mottled light from the turbulent flow of time and space becomes more intense and obvious, and it can be fully formed within a few minutes at most.

But what is waiting for them, no one can tell.

Maybe the turbulence of time and space just takes away a piece of wasteland, or some terrible monsters may be thrown over, or even an ancient relic may be brushed out from the buried long river of history.

As for the maintenance time, no one can predict it.

The short ones may only last for a few minutes before dissipating, and the long ones may last for months, years, or even permanent changes.

This uneasiness about the unknown made Zhou Shen feel even more uneasy.

He thought for a while, and ordered his subordinates: "Stand back another fifty steps, surround the carriages into a formation, light more torches and talisman lamps, and be careful. Even if someone is in a hurry, hold back, and no one is allowed to go out Half a step! Do you hear me?"

This cautiousness seems a little redundant, but I am not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.

Players and NPC team members also knew the truth of being prepared, and dragged their tired bodies into action.

While they were busy, the gray mist in the distance seemed to be subject to some kind of invisible vibration and impact, and suddenly rolled up.

Advent happened!

The dense, abstract color blocks and the colorfulness caused by the turbulent flow of time and space before became stable and began to dissipate at a slow speed.

"it is good!"

Witnessing this scene, Zhou Shen showed joy on his face.

They were lucky this time, the space-time turbulence they encountered didn't seem to last long, maybe only a few hours, or even shorter.

In the most ideal situation, they even have the chance to return to Huaizhuang before the end of the white night!

Zhao Tiange and Wei Jinpeng also let out a sigh of relief. After experiencing the accident of the black tree puppet, they could no longer bear more risks.

But the tree wants to be still and the wind does not stop.

The three of them wanted to wait slowly until the turbulence of time and space disappeared again.Unexpectedly, just a moment later, in the depths of the gray fog, in the direction where the turbulent flow of time and space appeared, faint shouts and fighting sounds came.

Soon, the voice was moving along Qingshi Road, moving quickly!

Zhou Shen's expression suddenly turned ugly.

Seeing that this disaster could not be avoided, he slapped the carriage hard and shouted: "Attention everyone, prepare to fight!"

Chapter 55 The Visitor Hundreds of Years Ago

"Hurry up!"

"No, those resentful corpses are about to catch up!"

"Hey, am I blind? There is a fire in front!"

In the depths of the gray mist, as the footsteps approached, there was a deliberately suppressed shout.It seems that if the sound is slightly louder, more monsters will be attracted.

And these voices also surprised Zhou Shen and the others and the players who were waiting in full force.

Outside the wilderness, in the turbulent time and space, where do living people come from?

"Captain, do you want to shoot a few rounds of arrows first?"

Several village patrol members with bows and arrows whispered to Zhou Dao.

"Wait a minute."

Zhou Shen hesitated for a moment, and decided to wait and see for a while.

In the turbulent flow of time and space, although it is rare for humans to get lost, it is not absolutely unheard of.

While speaking, in the gray fog in front of him, a shadowy silhouette of a human figure appeared.

On the side of the convoy, after all, many torches and talisman lamps were lit, radiating a lot of light and heat.The people who rushed out of the gray mist had confirmed the other party's human identity earlier than Xu Fei and the others, so they couldn't help but be overjoyed.
