Chapter 230 Target
The rugged path stretched forward in a twist and turn, and in the woods hundreds of meters away, countless small white "light bulbs" lit up, like moving fireflies, undulating in the forest, emitting a faint light.
These light spots are all lighting spells released by mage players. Although they are not as far as the light emitted by flashlights, they can barely illuminate the road under their feet, preventing their companions from being stumbled by tree roots or stones exposed on the ground. fall.
Cecilia has her own night vision goggles, so she doesn't need additional lighting magic. It's just Moon Dance. Seeing that the mages around her are using lighting skills, maybe she doesn't want to be left behind, so she also uses the top of her staff, A white lamp was lit.
Because Moon Dance is well equipped and her level is much higher than that of other mages, the lighting technique she released is also brighter than that of other mage players. The diameter of the light ball alone has reached a terrifying level. About 60 centimeters, holding it in your hand, it looks like a bright moon.
Sensing the sudden light around her, Cecilia frowned slightly, but after a moment of hesitation, she finally said nothing.
In fact, the light tonight is not dark, and the surrounding environment is not too complicated. You only need to go straight along the existing road, and there is no need to use magic to illuminate.
Moon Dance rubbed the ball of light so big, although it satisfied her vanity of being competitive, it also put their five-member team in a more dangerous situation than other teams.
After all, no one can guarantee that among the unknown enemies, there is no type that relies on light to find the target. There is darkness everywhere, and only here is a bright light. It is like telling the enemy "I am here" clearly.
This is also the reason why Cecilia doesn't like to form a team with others. Not only must she devote herself to protecting other people in the team, but she may even be dragged down.
It's just that she can't fight alone for the rest of her life, and the strength of the team will always be greater. Since she has formed a team when she came, the only thing she can do now is to try her best to lead her teammates to survive longer.
Anyway, the battle has not officially started yet, so let her play if she wants to play, and when she officially enters the Qiulu Grassland, what everyone will face will undoubtedly be an extremely difficult and vicious battle.
Everyone continued to walk cautiously. Just as they were about to enter the woods, Dawn Shuguang quickened his pace and came to Cecilia's side. After hesitating for a moment, he lowered his voice and said, "Why don't I follow the big troops ahead to explore the way?" , anyway, my defense is high, if there is any information, I will definitely be able to bring it back alive."
What he said made sense. After all, this event was held at night, and Miss System's introduction was very general. There was not even a quest interface, and no one knew what they were about to face.
In the situation where the number, type, and level of the enemies are unknown, if you continue to walk, if you encounter any danger that you cannot deal with, it will be troublesome.
Cecilia naturally thought about this too, without thinking too much, she shook her head decisively, and said softly: "Leave the mission of exploring the path to me, trust me, never underestimate the combat power of the Angel Army, this mission It will definitely be very dangerous, you just need to be responsible for protecting the three of them, and after entering the forest, I will find a chance to move freely."
This is Cecilia's first confrontation with the four archangels in the game. Although it is only a forward force, it cannot be underestimated, and one must use [-]% of its energy to deal with it.
Although it is safer to walk with a large army, Cecilia has a lot of shady cards, so she can't use them in full view. Overall, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.
Therefore, in order to ensure that she can exert her full strength, after thinking for a long time, Cecilia still felt that it would be better to leave the team and act alone.
Since it was Cecilia's plan, others would naturally not object, and a consensus was quickly reached.
After passing through the bushes and entering the woods, when Cecilia left, she seemed to suddenly think of something, turned around and said to Yue Wu: "Your lighting technique can almost be wiped out, don't play it dead, this event It’s really not as simple as last time.”
"Okay." Yue Wu was startled at first, then nodded seriously.
The light ball at the top of the staff went out, and the surroundings fell into darkness again.
Cecilia saw the timing of the darkness and turned around. Before everyone could see her movements clearly, she disappeared into the dark forest.
After leaving the team, Cecilia finally stopped restraining her hands and feet. While walking quickly through the dense forest, she raised her skirt and gently grasped the handle of the gun on the outside of her thigh.
The feeling of starting with a solid wood gun grip is still familiar, just like meeting old friends again.
As the saying goes, a little girl is better than a newlywed. During this period of time, Cecilia has been busy opening a coffee shop and practicing magic, and has no time to go to the wild to fight monsters, let alone daily marksmanship training.
Until today, she finally had the opportunity to test how her combat power is now after she has been promoted to level 23.
Of course, her target is not those ordinary mobs, but the BOSS behind the scenes of this event.
Familiarized with the grip of the handle, Cecilia put the flintlock back into the holster, and took out the dagger hidden in her waist. After confirming that there were no other players around, she decisively released the Darkwing Demon from the backpack. bat.
The fallen leaves on the ground were blown up by the strong wind, and a huge black shadow flew into the air in an instant, across the night, and flew straight towards the Qiulu Grassland!
After the dark-winged mephit flew about 600 meters away, Cecilia's left eye glowed with blood, and she reached a spiritual connection with the dark-winged mephit, sharing vision, and then manipulated it to open its bloody mouth, and the invisible sound wave spread instantly .
Half a second later, a three-dimensional map with a diameter of several thousand meters was clearly presented in Cecilia's mind, and the light spots in front of her were densely packed, almost filling the entire map. There are tens of thousands.
Just the vanguard, the number is almost equal to the total number of monsters attacking the city before. It is hard to imagine, what a hopeless picture it will be when the main force of the fourth angel army arrives.
Cecilia raised her head coldly, and her complexion became a little ugly. At the same time, she also noticed that besides the tens of thousands of monsters, there were dozens of slightly weaker light spots heading towards the imperial city. Running towards the direction at a high speed, it seems to be avoiding the pursuit of the monster army behind.
It seems that these dozens of light spots should be the Imperial Defense Force that Miss System mentioned, which is the target that needs to be rescued in this mission.
Chapter 230 Tearing
After confirming the goal of this mission, Cecilia did not show up immediately to support.
The current situation is not clear, how many bosses there are, and what level they are, is also unclear for the time being.
In order not to startle the enemy, she decided to wait and see for a while to be on the safe side, and wait for the real master behind the first wave of monsters to appear before making any further plans.
Moreover, judging from the retreat speed of the defeated soldiers of the Imperial Defense Army, it is estimated that it will take at least 3 minutes before they will encounter the first wave of players head-on.
After only 3 minutes, Cecilia couldn't afford to wait. She slowly scanned her surroundings. She found a dense bush, rolled on the ground, shrunk her body into a ball, and hid in it quietly. .
The location of this grove is very good, it is on the edge of the forest, with the forest on one side and the endless grassland on the other side, it can be used to observe the movement ahead.
After entering the bushes, Cecilia carefully pushed aside the branches and leaves in front of her, revealing only a pair of eyes reflecting a faint red light in the darkness, silently observing the grassland ahead.
Not long after, at the end of the horizon, a group of small black dots appeared, running towards their direction at high speed.
Although the distance between the two sides was at least five kilometers away, Cecilia couldn't see the appearance of those black spots, but she could see that these black spots should be humans on horseback, holding long spears in their hands. Sword, and wearing black armor that symbolizes the knights of the empire.
Looking at the map in her mind, Cecilia can basically confirm that these people are the ones who need to be rescued in this mission, but she still didn't get out of the grass immediately, but remained motionless, her eyes fixed on him. Look at the few knights at the end of the queue.
In the next second, more than a dozen knights appeared behind the group of imperial knights.
However, these dozen or so knights obviously do not belong to the category of human beings. They have huge heads, big ears, fangs sticking out of their lips, and they are holding weapons like meteor hammers in their hands, waving them above their heads. Like a helicopter propeller.
In addition, the mounts under them are not ordinary war horses, but some kind of huge lizard-shaped monsters.
Although these lizards have short limbs, they can crawl very fast, not at all slower than war horses carefully selected and bred by humans. Their fat bodies twist from side to side and snake forward like a gust of wind hitting the ground.
It seems that these knights riding lizards should be the first wave of monsters that players will face in this event.
In a short while, the two groups of knights were several hundred meters closer to Cecilia. With her vision far beyond ordinary people, Cecilia was finally able to clearly see the faces of the dozen or so monster knights behind her.
Their noses are big, their nostrils are turned out, their eyes are extremely fierce, and a faint black air is still lingering around their bodies. Moreover, the meteor hammers they wield in their hands are also extremely strange. It flew out at an unexpected angle, and then slammed heavily on the back of an imperial knight, knocking them off their horses, rolling and struggling on the ground.
In less than a dozen seconds, four or five human knights had already been beaten down, and the few remaining human knights were reduced again.
Of course, the Imperial Defense Forces that survived to the end were naturally not vegetarians.
Especially at the forefront of the team, the female knight who looks like a leader, every time she slashes her long sword backwards, there will be a lavender sword aura. These sword auras never fail, and they are extremely accurate. Then, some lizard knights were cut in the chest, their health bar suddenly dropped to half, they fell on the back of the lizard, rolled around on the ground, let out a long, desperate and terrifying howl.
From the devastating power of her attack, Cecilia could vaguely infer that the female knight's level was at least level 40 or higher.
However, Cecilia is still unclear for the time being, she obviously has such a strong attack power, why didn't she turn her horse's head around and kill all the lizard knights who were chasing behind, so as to protect her few subordinates, but Do you want to choose to run away all the time?
Could it be that there are even more powerful monsters behind these lizard knights, so that even with the fighting power of this female knight, there is no way to resist them head-on?
With this possibility in her mind, Cecilia suddenly had a stronger warning in her heart.
If there were monsters of that level, even NPCs above level 40 wouldn't be able to deal with them. Cecilia didn't think she could do better than this female knight.
At the same time, she couldn't help but also began to rejoice.
Fortunately, I didn't go out in the first time, otherwise, if the time comes, if I can't beat them, then the number of people who escaped will be happy to add another...
Sure enough, patient observation is the wiser choice.
[The situation is not good, be careful to hide it. 】
After editing this message, Cecilia pressed the send button in the team chat.
.........
Just when Cecilia was about to fight to the end, on the other side, the female knight Alea was lying on the bumpy horseback, holding the black sword upside down, panting violently.
As a small captain of the advance battalion of the Imperial Defense Force, this is not the first time she has participated in a large-scale battle against monsters, but she never thought that the Defense Force, known as the strongest barrier in the Empire, would have someone close to the whole world. The day the army was wiped out.
On this day, as the portal constructed by the shaman opened, countless monsters walked out of the dark cracks in space, and officially landed on this fertile continent from the eastern coast of the empire.
Eight thousand well-trained defenders rushed to the battlefield in an orderly manner at the first time, but within two hours, they were completely overwhelmed by the tide of monsters that seemed to never dry up. Human corpses and monster corpses , almost filled the entire beach, and the warm blood almost dyed the entire seawater a bright red color.
To make matters worse, the monsters this time were obviously far from the same level as those they had encountered before.
Not only are they powerful in battle, each of them is brave and fearless. What's more terrible is that among the enemies this time, there are even terrifying monsters with a score of B-level or higher.
The huge shark-shaped beast jumped out from the sea level, its eyes were red, and its body was surrounded by thick black air. Then it crashed down, crushing an entire battalion of defenders to death.
If it's just a huge size, that's fine. No matter how fierce a shark is, once it gets out of the water and lands, it's just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that after landing on the shore, the monster twisted its body, broke through the reef, as if re-entering the water, got into the solid ground, and then jumped out again.
Obviously, the black air lingering on the monster's body, while depriving it of sanity, also endowed it with even more terrifying power.
As the second leap fell, the human defense line was finally completely torn apart.
Chapter 230 Two Encounters on a Narrow Road
As for how she broke out of the siege in the end, and escaped from the giant shark that could swim freely in the ground, Elena no longer remembered.
Surrounded by broken limbs and broken arms, as well as the sound of screams and fighting.
The companions around her fell one by one. Just when Elena thought that perhaps today was the day to sacrifice herself for the empire, Meg Victor, the highest commander of the Eastern Region of the Imperial Defense Force, a tall black armored knight , stopped her who was about to die generously, and forced a small black box with exquisite workmanship into her hand, saying in an undeniable tone:
"The final moment is coming soon, leave this box to me, take your people and try to escape back to the imperial city, remember, no matter what price you pay, please give this box to Ed of the imperial knights Miss Lin."
"Okay... okay, seeing her, what should I... say?"
Elena opened her dry lips, and felt a huge pressure from the commander's tortoise-like words.
"Needless to say anything, she will understand when she sees what's in the box." Meg waved her hand and said, "The emperor's grace protects you and me. Obey the order and set off now!"
Now that the commander said so, Elena had no choice but to leave the main battlefield with her remaining 20 or so knights, ride on a fast horse, and quickly evacuate towards the imperial city behind.
However, what she didn't expect was that within less than ten minutes of setting off, the defensive line formed by the lives of her companions was directly torn apart by the seemingly endless wave of monsters.
The orc knights, who had never seen one before, quickly chased after them on the hideous lizard knights. They waved the meteor hammers in their hands, recklessly harvesting fresh lives. Of course, Elena was not polite. Every time he swung his sword, at least one orc knight was severely injured.
After that, it was the picture that Cecilia had seen before.
From the first time she caught the mission target with the naked eye until now, during these few minutes, Cecilia has always maintained the same posture, hiding in the bushes without moving, and has not made any further movements.
It wasn't that she was cowardly, but Cecilia really couldn't figure it out. With the fighting power shown by that female knight, she could completely turn the horse's head and kill all the pursuers without running away.
Anyway, if Cecilia was her, she would definitely do this.
However, the female knight did not turn around and fight back, but continued to run away without looking back. Even if the subordinates around her were downsized one by one, they were still unmoved. This made Cecilia suspicious. Is there any more terrifying monster behind?
Apparently, Cecilia didn't know that the only task the female knight Alleya received was to bring the small box back to the imperial city safely. Soldiers obey orders as their duty, so she naturally didn't need to do extra things.
After waiting for another minute, the sixth wave of ultrasonic waves returned on time. Except for the dozen or so lizard knights, there were still no new pursuers within two kilometers, and the first wave of players who set off at the beginning was almost Walk out of the forest and arrive at the Qiulu Grassland.
Until then, Cecilia finally couldn't hold back anymore.
Opening the detailed interface, she began to check the detailed attributes of these orc knights.
