Main line eight: Investigate the truth behind the supernatural! [Task reward: level +1, skill point +200, gold coin Hit damage +10%, hero title effect: permanently increase attack power by 1% based on level)]
After taking a look at the main line that was always unfinished in the task bar, Zhang Junmo looked a little solemn.
Based on current experience, the main missions are obviously released based on his own situation, and will not be far beyond his capabilities.
Even the side missions are pretty much the same, and they also have a rejectable option.
What is the truth behind the supernatural?
Based on the known information, Zhang Junmo could only confirm that this matter was inseparable from the Yinsi and the ghosts of the Yinling Clan.
As for the root cause of the appearance of supernatural beings, all he could speculate was that the ghosts were cultivating supernatural beings with human feed, thus obtaining a good source of food.
To put it bluntly, it's like raising pigs in a pen.
But is that really all there is to it?
How was the fierce ghost cultivated?
Are the so-called ghosts really the kind of existence that Zhang Junmo knows about through movies, TV shows and legends?
The main mission is obviously what the system wants Zhang Junmo to complete, and it is also what Zhang Junmo is obliged to complete as a member of the Dragon Court.
But when these thoughts flashed through Zhang Junmo's mind, Gao Shengzhong on the side stared at him in shock.
"Nima! Jun Mo, are you crazy?"
"Investigating supernatural secrets? Of course there are strong people in Longting to investigate such things, right? Is it your turn?"
Gao Shengzhong's eyes almost popped out.
To be honest, even though he had experienced several supernatural events, he was still a little scared.
This is human nature.
The unknown always brings fear to people.
In addition, the word "supernatural" gives people too deep-rooted impression. Human beings are almost instinctively afraid of this kind of thing.
Even if you are an atheist, you are someone who claims to get rid of superstition.
When they encounter supernatural events, they will behave even worse than those who believe in ghosts!
Because this kind of person's outlook on life is more impacted than others, his emotions will naturally become more unstable.
But fortunately, Gao Shengzhong, who used to be a standard fat nerd...
Well, now too.
He actually prefers that all the legends about gods and ghosts in the world are true.
After all, there are cultivators in this world!
But the problem is that even cultivators know very little about ghosts.
"What? Are you scared?"
Zhang Junmo had no expression on his face and just looked at him silently.
"Fuck! Young Master, am I afraid? Are you afraid?"
"It's just that, the few times I've come into contact with those things before, it seems that my abilities have no effect on them!"
Gao Shengzhong was stiff-necked at first and wanted to say some tough words.
Unfortunately, in the past few days, I have had a stiff neck, a sore neck, and can't stiffen up.
Zhang Junmo was a little helpless.
"makes sense."
Gao Shengzhong was not forced again.
The reason why I invited him before was because I trusted him. In addition, this boy was very strong. If he really started to work, Zhang Junmo estimated that except for the magician, there should be no profession that could guarantee him a win.
As for the Illusion Swordsman, I am afraid that only the enhanced version of Illusion Explosion will have a chance.
However, the enhanced version requires 6 points of self-power, and you need to use skills to accumulate self-power points.
However, Gao Shengzhong has the Chrysanthemum Sword evolved into the Sword Net, which is responsible for long-range attack and defense, and now he has the Peach Blossom Sword for close combat. He is really in trouble.
As his practice increased, the horror of Gao Shengzhong's S-level superpower gradually became apparent.
That is not only a terrifying training speed, but as a sword summoner, his chrysanthemum sword itself is more powerful than the swords of ordinary sword summoners!
Pure realm combat power is comparable to mid-level D level.
And his sword-killing will is now on par with Zhang Junmo's, and his combat power is even comparable to that of most D-level late-stage superpowers who have comprehended the power of will.
Coupled with his Thirty-two Baoju Styles, oh no, after upgrading, it should be called the Sixty-Fourth Baoju Styles, and the White Tiger Sword Technique.
The combination of these methods is enough to fight Zhao Feiyun head-on!
As for the outcome, it's hard to make a judgment.
But this is enough to prove how amazing Gao Shengzhong has grown and how powerful his fighting potential is!
However, in the face of supernatural beings, there is no reason.
No matter how powerful the combat power is, unless it is an absolute state of suppression, the attack will have little effect on the ghost.
"That's okay!"
In this case, Zhang Junmo decided to set out on his own.
He originally didn't know where to go to find out the truth about the supernatural.
But when he broke through to level 31 in the early morning, he discovered that there seemed to be some changes in the system.
Well, in other words, the taskbar has changed.
On the main quest, an arrow appeared!
This arrow is simply not too familiar to Zhang Junmo.
This is the direction guide for the tasks in the Dragon Nest game!
In other words, with this direction guide, he knows where to go to complete the task.
Moreover, the distance is thoughtfully given under the arrow.
In this way, Zhang Junmo saved a lot of trouble.
After all, if the mission requires him to run to the other side of the star, he may not be able to think of this without knowing the distance.
At this time, the distance displayed under the arrow is 80 kilometers.
The direction points south.
"This direction and distance should be at the seaside."
Zhang Junmo had just left the college gate when he heard someone calling him from behind.
"Wait a minute, Jun Mo!"
Looking back, he saw Gao Shengzhong chasing after him.
"Qianmao? Aren't you going?"
"Hi! What's that word?"
"I just stated some objective facts. But I didn't express a subjective attitude!"
Gao Shengzhong patted his chest and said, "When have you ever been afraid of trouble?"
Zhang Junmo glanced at him and couldn't help laughing.
This usually shapeless Shaqiao is sometimes more reliable than anyone else.
"Let's go! Let's go!"
"Okay!"
…
In coastal cities, due to special geographical conditions, part of the city is located on an island.
And at the southernmost tip of the island, there is a thousand-year-old temple that is famous far and wide!
Nantupu Temple!
The history of this temple can be traced back to thousands of years ago, and it has a long history and culture.
According to legend, most of the people who offer incense and petition here have their wishes come true.
In addition, there is no admission fee here.
So on weekdays, there are many pilgrims here.
It is precisely because of the weak commercial atmosphere here that piety is fully revealed here.
No tickets are required, incense is given to the Buddha.
Although there are a lot of people, the Buddhist tranquility and far-reaching atmosphere are still impressive.
All this has attracted many people to come often to offer incense and petition.
However, recently, for some unknown reason, the temple suddenly closed its doors and refused to allow tourists to visit.
It aroused the curiosity of many people.
And these days, even if they can't enter, there are still some pilgrims praying devoutly at the door.
But the difference from before is that for some reason, this temple has become a bit gloomy.
"Hey? Why do I feel a little cold here?"
At this time, a man who was pulled over by his girlfriend tightened the collar of his coat.
It's not even December yet, and the southern coastal cities here belonging to the Celestial Kingdom are not very cold at all.
Wearing a jacket basically doesn't feel like anything.
He raised his head and looked at the sky, looking at the dark clouds above his head, and muttered in a depressed tone: "It's strange, the sky is clear all around here, but the sky here is shrouded in clouds and gloomy."
The man did not believe in gods and Buddhas. He originally thought that his girlfriend asked him to go out on a date, but he did not expect that she was coming to a temple, so he didn't take it seriously.
However, his unintentional words were heard by the young woman next to him.
"What more nonsense are you talking about!"
The woman pinched the man's waist gently, then bowed towards the temple door with her palms clasped together and said, "Forgive me, Bodhisattva, but my boyfriend is ignorant and talked nonsense, which offended you. I hope you will forgive me!"
After praying again and again, the woman looked at the man and said, "Did you know? The Bodhisattvas here are very spiritual! When I was a child, I once fell into a coma for no apparent reason. My parents took me to a hospital not far away but could not find out the cause. , and I was foaming at the mouth and in a very bad condition. It happened that my mother met an eminent monk who was bringing pilgrims to the hospital. She might have been ill and sought medical attention, so she came to this temple to pray for the blessings of the Bodhisattva to help me wake up quickly. "
"What was unexpected was that just after she petitioned and returned to the hospital, she saw that I had woken up. Even the doctors on site found it incredible. After the examination, they found that my physical condition had completely returned to normal, and afterwards, I never fell into a coma like I did when I was a child. Later, when I heard my mother talk about it while chatting at home, I realized that the Bodhisattva in this temple saved my life."
"real or fake?"
After hearing the woman's description, the man was a little skeptical.
"Why did I lie to you? If it weren't for the blessing of the Bodhisattva in this temple, where would you have such a beautiful girlfriend like me now? Humph!"
The man wanted to say something else, but seeing his girlfriend's appearance, he had no choice but to obey her.
"Looking at you like this, what you said should be true. I didn't expect it to be so magical!"
As he spoke, he also clasped his hands and bowed towards the temple gate.
Of course, only he knows what he thinks.
At this time, the woman stood there again, with her eyes closed and her hands clasped in front of her chest, probably praying to the Bodhisattva.
After the petition, he prayed a few times devoutly.
Then the two of them left in front of the temple.
However, when they left, they saw two young men staring at the woman intently.
The woman seemed to have noticed this, thinking she had met two gangsters, so she grabbed her boyfriend's arm tightly.
And the man was also a little nervous.
Although the two young men next to him didn't seem to be very old, and they didn't look very strong either.
But he felt an inexplicable sense of oppression just by looking at it.
It's as if just being stared at by the other person's eyes makes you feel breathless.
So in the end, he didn't say anything, just hugged his girlfriend and walked quickly away.
"The Sword Comes"
"Wait!"
However, before the two of them could go far, they heard a voice coming from behind.
Hearing this voice, the two of them stopped for a moment, and then instead of stopping, they walked even faster!
Unfortunately, before she had gone far, the woman felt a hand suddenly grab her shoulder.
The tension accumulated earlier caused the woman to scream in surprise.
The two finally turned around at this moment, and their expressions changed when they saw the two young men in front of them.
The man mustered up his courage and pushed away the young man who put his hand on his girlfriend's shoulder.
Perhaps the man found out that he was so timid and fearful, which made him a little embarrassed, so the man shouted angrily: "What are you going to do? You want to molest my girlfriend in broad daylight?"
Hearing such a loud shout, the people around him immediately gathered around curiously, wanting to see what happened.
After all, I heard someone say the word teasing.
Zhang Junmo saw people watching, and reluctantly stretched out his other hand holding a wallet.
"Brother, have you misunderstood? I just saw your girlfriend dropped her wallet and wanted to return it to her."
"Ah...ah?"
The man saw that Zhang Junmo's tone didn't seem to be malicious and was quite kind. The most important thing was that he seemed to have misunderstood him and was a little confused for a moment.
The woman reacted first. She was a little embarrassed and ashamed and said: "Yes... I'm sorry! Brother, we just misunderstood you as gangsters. I'm really sorry!"
"Also, thank you for returning our wallets!"
The woman took the wallet and she and her boyfriend apologized profusely to Zhang Junmo and Gao Shengzhong.
After Zhang Junmo repeatedly said it didn't matter and refused the two's invitation to treat them to dinner, the two left embarrassedly.
Seeing that it was a misunderstanding, everyone stopped watching and dispersed.
However, Zhang Junmo and Gao Shengzhong looked at each other and looked at the strange figure in Zhang Junmo's hand that was pale and covered with long hair!
Previously, Zhang Junmo patted the woman on the shoulder, which actually caught the strange figure lying on the woman!
"Fuck! Can't even these people see it?"
Gao Shengzhong's eyes widened and he said in disbelief.
Zhang Junmo shook his head slightly.
"There should be ordinary people here, so it's normal not to see this thing."
But Gao Shengzhong was a little unbelievable. He glanced at the Buddhist temple next to him and said, "Is this a Buddhist temple? How dare this thing appear here? Are you not afraid that the Bodhisattva inside will come out and destroy it?"
Zhang Junmo sneered and said, "Come on! Do you believe this?"
"No...didn't that woman say that the Bodhisattva here is very spiritual? Moreover, the temple door is closed, and there are so many devout pilgrims outside the door. It should be really protected by the Bodhisattva, right?"
Gao Shengzhong looked at Zhang Junmo's expression and said with some uncertainty.
Zhang Junmo looked at the strange figure in his hand, and then a fire suddenly appeared in his palm.
"ah!
! "
The strange figure suddenly let out a shrill howl, and almost instantly, it was burned into nothingness by the fire and completely dissipated.
The previous screams and firelight disappeared in just an instant.
The people around him didn't even hear the cry, and they were still coming and going.
However, feeling the gloomy atmosphere around him and the clouds always shrouding the sky, Zhang Junmo understood.
This temple is probably exactly what the man before said!
