Chapter 5 Ruins and Ruins
The ruins are a dangerous place.
Duanmu Huai strode forward, looking around. The dazzling light from his helmet illuminated the originally dim ruins in front of him. Most of it had been buried in the sand, and only some remaining pillars and statues were still standing there.
Stubbornly showing their existence.
Duanmuhuai moved forward step by step, while observing the surrounding decorations and creations. However, just behind him, a bulge appeared on the originally flat pile of dust and sand, slowly approaching the prey in front of him - and then it
Suddenly it flew out from the sand, opened its sharp teeth and pounced on the target.
At the same time, Duanmu Huai also clenched his war hammer and turned around to strike!
"winter!!"
The steel warhammer hit the black shadow instantly, knocking it away. The black shadow fell to the ground, straightened up with a sharp whistle, and stared at Duanmuhuai - it was a body as big as a wine barrel.
The giant snake was so thick and nearly ten meters long. It opened its mouth and venom spurted out, towards Duanmuhuai.
Duanmu Huai, who succeeded in the attack, did not just stay there stupidly. On the contrary, when the giant snake sprayed venom at him, he already clenched his war hammer, flew forward, and then jumped high to avoid the giant snake.
The venom was sprayed on it, and then it hit the giant snake's head again with a hammer, knocking it to the ground.
Under the merciless blows of the steel war hammer, the giant snake fell to the ground. When it twisted its body and tried to struggle again, a black shadow appeared out of thin air, blocking its sight.
“————!!”
Duanmu Huai stepped on the giant snake's tough head mercilessly with enough power. The giant snake tried to resist, but its skull was obviously not hard enough to compare with the ruthless mechanical force. He could only hear
With a "poof" sound, the giant snake's head was trampled into meat paste.
[The wilderness snake dies, you gain 50 experience points]
Duanmu Huai glanced at the system prompts, then turned around and walked forward again. At this moment, he seemed to feel that he was back in the game again, which reminded him of the feeling when he first experienced the game Xinghai OL, in a different identity
, walking in different worlds, exploring unknown adventures, and eager to find some interesting secrets, and even powerful treasures. These are more interesting than simply fighting monsters, and exploring the unknown is also quite interesting.
This is why he likes this game, countless planets, countless worlds, and countless adventures.
The tension, excitement, and satisfaction of exploration always make people want to stop.
Moreover, it seems that he is not the only one exploring here.
Duanmuhuai stopped, then he squatted down, reached out and grabbed something buried in the sand, and then lifted it up with force - it was a corpse, and most of his body had already rotted.
White bones protruded from the disgusting flesh and blood, and swayed along with Duanmuhuai's movements, as if he had self-awareness. Judging from his rotten, livid face, this man should be a giant snake.
of the previous victim.
It can be regarded as revenge for you.
Regarding the corpse in front of him, Duanmu Huai acted very calmly. After all, he had seen too many disgusting things in Xinghai OL, especially in the evil god realm that went deep into the subspace in the later period. Every place in it was better than B-level plasma.
The movie is a hundred times more disgusting, but this kind of painting can be considered a strange style.
On the contrary, Alyssa next to her turned pale when she saw the corpse and almost vomited.
"Lord Black Knight, let's change the route... It's too dangerous here..."
Alyssa was crying now, almost crying. She shouldn't have told the Black Knight about this place in the first place, but now it's better. If she had known that this place was so dangerous, she shouldn't have come...
But if she didn't come, she wouldn't have anywhere to go.
Those evil god believers were sending a large group of troops to chase them. In fact, on the way to the ruins, Duanmu Huai and Alyssa encountered several chasing troops. Of course, these guys were killed by Duanmu Huai. But from their mouths,
The two of them can also be convinced that this group of evil god believers has indeed sent many people, and they must take Alyssa back.
"keep going."
Of course Duanmuhuai would not listen to Alyssa. He shook his head and continued to move forward. The latter could only follow.
"By the way, do you know the history of this ruins?"
While looking at the wreckage around him, Duanmu Huai asked, what he liked to do most in the game was this kind of thing, walking in the dilapidated ruins that have been forgotten by time, imagining their past glory, here
What happened in this city, how many people lived here, and how they embarked on the road of destruction, eventually turning this place into a deserted ghost town.
Because of this factor, Duanmu Huai had previously thought about transferring to the Department of Archeology, but... well, people said he looked like a tomb robber.
It's just MMP. You might as well say that I am a smuggler. Which tomb robber is as tall as me? Isn't this stuck in the tomb passage?
If it doesn't work in reality, Duanmuhuai can just enjoy it in the game.
"Uh...I've heard of some."
Alyssa seemed to be no stranger to this place. She followed Duanmuhuai and carefully peeked around while whispering.
"I heard that this was once a country. This country had very advanced technology for making demon dolls. The king of this country used this technology to create many fearless demon dolls to invade other countries and occupy a lot of land."
"Then how was it destroyed?"
Duanmuhuai asked curiously, and Alyssa thought for a moment.
"It seems that they created a very powerful demon doll and tried to conquer the world, but the demon doll went crazy for some reason and attacked the royal city, completely destroying the entire royal city. The king was also killed by the demon doll.
There are rumors that this is some kind of curse... Anyway, after that, the country began to decline and the people also left here."
"I didn't see any remains of the demon doll."
Duanmuhuai looked at the wilderness around him. There was nothing left except broken walls and ruins.
"After all, it's just a rumor, and it happened hundreds of years ago..."
After saying this, Alyssa suddenly stopped, and then she listened attentively.
"Lord Knight, did you hear it? There is the sound of water!!"
"Well, indeed there is."
"Great! Can we go there?!"
At this time, Alyssa grabbed Duanmu Huai's arm and looked at him pleadingly. Although she wanted to rush over directly, but——she didn't dare.
After all, there are too many dangers hidden here, and the giant snake just now is the best example.
"No problem at all."
Now that the followers of the evil god have not caught up, Duanmuhuai doesn't mind letting Alyssa relax.
The sound of water is coming from a river. Judging from its appearance, this should have been a moat a long time ago, but now that the sea has changed, this original moat has turned into a small stream.
"Very good!!"
Seeing this news, Alyssa jumped up excitedly, and then she seemed to have thought of something, and turned to look at Duanmu Huai with some embarrassment.
"Lord Black Knight, um...I want to take a bath..."
It’s no wonder Alyssa has such a need. In fact, ever since she was rescued by Duanmuhuai, the girl has been disheveled, covered in blood, and her clothes are ragged. She also smells fishy now. If it weren’t for
If isolated by armor, Duanmuhuai would probably be able to smell the stench on the girl's body - this is unacceptable to any girl who loves beauty.
"I'll give you twenty minutes."
Duanmuhuai didn't say much. Alyssa did have this need, so he didn't stop him. After scanning the surroundings and confirming that there were no hidden biological signals, Duanmuhuai nodded and walked away.
At this moment Alyssa also cheered and threw herself directly into the creek.
Duanmu Huai did not spy on Alyssa taking a bath out of boredom. On the contrary, Alyssa was not by his side, which gave him a chance.
As an experienced player, Duanmu Huai knows that it is basically impossible for him and others to escape from the pursuit of the evil god believers. This kind of serial missions will become more stressful in the later stages. The first ones are just some
As for the miscellaneous soldiers, a BOSS-level existence should appear next. At present, Duanmu Huai has repelled three waves of miscellaneous soldiers. The completion level in the mission "Escort" is displayed as [3/?], which means that there will be more in the future.
There will be pursuers, and there may even be powerful BOSS-level enemies.
This is normal for players. Next, it depends on the value of Alyssa. If her value is very high, then the entire organization is more likely to mobilize. If her value is only averagely high, then as long as she cuts it down herself
This trouble can be solved by removing the hands extended by these evil god believers.
But no matter what, Duanmuhuai could not let these evil god believers leave.
In the world of Xinghai OL, all followers of the evil god are followers of the evil god of chaos, which are also enemies of order.
They betray order, join forces with chaos, and cause harm to the world.
What a blasphemy!
Xinghai OL has a high degree of freedom. Players can choose their factions at will, but only the Chaos God and the Cultists are always the hostile camp and cannot be changed!
Duanmu Huai's current ability can only defeat small bosses. If a more powerful enemy comes, he will be somewhat unable to resist it. Even if he has power armor, his own level is low and the value of the power armor is not high. In the high-level demon
There is also a plate of food in front of him. That's why he comes here - because only here can he become stronger.
Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai's eyes narrowed, and then he raised his right hand.
