"Our estimate was correct, those guys have indeed broken into the fog!"
"But...do you still want to chase now?"
On the mountain peak close to the clouds, apart from knowing that it is still daytime, it is really not easy to tell where the time left on the clock has reached. Therefore, the players who stay here do not know that they are waiting here. How long. Experienced players can still know the current time through calculations in their heads, but most people, including Duan Qing, who has just arrived here, do not have the ability to measure the answer to this kind of question. Of course, for Duan Qing, who has experienced many catastrophes, not having such a concept is just one of the many problems he does not understand, but he can still deal with the situation that suddenly appeared in front of him and the subsequent development. Make a rough guess.
So when he saw the players rushing over, he immediately pulled Art back into the clouds and mist - this was the only person he knew in this inexplicable place.
Most people who come here for the first time have no sense of the dangers of the fog surrounding the mountain. If they come here often, most of them will use their own personal experiences to warn other teammates about what lies behind this seemingly ordinary fog. How dangerous it is. Although this is not the first time for Ye Lin's team to come here, they have never been through the fog, and they have no personal experience of the dangers in it. However, like most new players, they have inquired about the dangers of this fog in advance. Where did it come from. So facing the target who rushed into the fog without hesitation, several people stood in front of the fog wall and looked at each other.
"Whether or not you want to chase...it depends on them."
Mi Zitou analyzed with some hesitation: "We have no confidence in breaking through this fog anyway. Otherwise, how would we have gotten their turn? We would have gone in long ago..."
"Tell me the important point." Xiye, holding a round shield, said impatiently.
"It's very simple. Either catch up and deal with those people while exploring the fog together, or..."
Mi Zitou looked around: "Continue to wait here, wait for them... to come back here because of another mistake."
From the information they gathered, the mist surrounding the mountain did have some properties unique to a labyrinth, and it was also a high-level version - many people always walked back to themselves without realizing it as they moved forward. On the entrance mountain road that I entered, I was sent back like a ghost punching a wall. No player can explain the reason for this situation. This is just a rule they have concluded after countless experiences.
And this was also the biggest reason why they decided to stay here in the first place.
"Since they have returned here once, it means that they are not completely sure of breaking through this fog. Our strategy is still effective." Mi Zitou, who was holding a crossbow, became more and more confident as he spoke, while still staring at the surroundings. Person: "As long as we are patient, we will definitely be able to wait for the next opportunity for a sneak attack. Although there are some other people here, they should not care about our business..."
"No matter how you think about it, the current method... has the highest success rate."
"But there's a problem here."
Another player who looked like a mage suddenly said: "Just now he... seemed to have dragged a person from the Nosir tribe in."
"If I'm not mistaken, then that NPC is probably a helper that their team found from nowhere."
A mysterious and powerful race, a local aboriginal living deep in Falling Star Mountain, the role of bringing him here, several people can guess without having to say anything. Ye Lin, who was holding a thin sword, already frowned: "Is it really possible... that they can break through this barrier and reach the top of the mountain?"
As soon as the word "top of the mountain" came out, the expressions of everyone present became a little unnatural - even now that the free world has been opened, the top of Falling Star Mountain is still a virgin land that no one has set foot on. Every player hopes that they can be The person who climbed to the top of the mountain for the first time, because there is such a high altitude and there are so many barriers to protect the place, even the game designer himself does not believe it if you say that there are no treasures there.
"Then... let's give it a try."
The captain who had remained silent finally concluded: "Anyway, we are tired of waiting here for a long time. We might as well go in and have a look. If you can meet them, you can shout twice so that the rest of us can determine the location." . Of course, I won’t force you. If you don’t want to rush into the fog, you can just stay here. Anyway, it can also play a role in guarding people. If they appear here again, it will be just right..."
His hands went down to everything: "Catch them all in one go."
Several people nodded in agreement.
"Rush in after a while and pay more attention to any abnormality. There must be something special about this fog. It would be best if you can study it. If you can't study it... then let your opponent study it. If you see them , remember not to be obsessed with fighting, make more use of the surrounding fog, maybe it will be very effective..."
call--
In full view of other onlookers, standing next to the team of people who were arranging the team's strategic direction on the snow in the middle of the mountain road, a figure suddenly appeared. The black figure quickly glanced at everyone present, and then He locked his gaze on the few people in front of him.
"That's him!" Xiye, who was wearing a shield, suddenly pointed at the black shadow and shouted: "It's him who slashed me with his sword..."
The mist brought by the black shadow floated past them, and before it completely dissipated, the man stepped hard, fell back into the mist, and disappeared in an instant. Before the splashing snowflakes landed, the five-person team headed by the big man rushed into the mist. The shouts of someone among them came back from the air before their figures disappeared.
"Don't run-"
Then, the fog that was broken away by the figures of several people gradually closed in the eyes of the onlookers, and the scene once again returned to the same silence as before.
*****************
Although he could not clearly see the situation in front of him, relying on his own feelings, Xue Ling Huan Bing felt that he should not have walked to the mountain pass just on his own two feet. But for someone with no foundation in magic, she couldn't explain what happened to her. In her memory, she only took two steps out from the hole and lost contact with Duan Qing who was originally beside her.
Realizing that he was on a high mountain at this time, it was very dangerous to run in such a foggy environment, so Xueling Huanbing was not in a hurry and continued to explore at his own pace, hoping at the same time that he could Without going far, find the place where you were just now. But it turned out that she was getting farther and farther away from the hole, because she couldn't help but tried to call, but she didn't get any response.
Then, she suddenly passed through the fog and came to...the front of the mountain road.
Xue Ling Huan Bing actually didn't have much impression of the previous battle in the cave, but in her heart, she actually remembered such an account, because according to the usual situation in the game, such a situation occurred It is very possible that those people have a grudge and come back for revenge, and they may also have found help. However, she did not expect that they did not choose to wait for them to go back at the bottom of the mountain, but ran directly to the mountain to intercept her people.
And it was really blocked.
She didn't meet up with Duan Qing and couldn't find the way she came. The woman didn't care about running, so she first distanced herself from the other party before talking. I have experienced the strangeness of this fog before, so as long as my luck is not too bad, I should not encounter them again.
And it's still a matter of debate whether they dare to chase him in together.
Waving away the thick fog that blocked his eyes, Xue Ling Huan Bing ran along the mountain path without any destination. At the same time, he put most of his energy on his feet, for fear of accidentally falling off a cliff. However, as the altitude gradually increased, the flow of air seemed to become faster and faster around her, but the visibility in the fog became lower and lower. The helpless woman in black had no choice but to slowly slow down her speed, and at the same time drew out her long sword, gradually raising her alertness.
In his consciousness, the surrounding sounds gradually disappeared from his ears, and the entire mist seemed to be frozen.
Tightening the sword in her hand, Xue Ling Huan Bing took another step towards the top of the ramp. The surrounding air flowed for a moment. Some kind of change seemed to have happened around her before she could react. . She turned around quickly and tried hard to determine her location, but she still couldn't make out anything except the white surrounding her.
The next moment, a figure appeared next to her, and at the same time he stopped quickly: "There is one here!"
The man with the shield shouted and rushed over, raised his round shield, and slapped Xue Ling Huan Bing in the face.
The figure drove the mist and blew it towards the front of Xiye, as if he wanted to swallow everything in front of him, but the increase in momentum could not change the process that happened in the real world - the white mist leading the front The shield appeared first at the woman's location, but didn't capture anything as it shuttled through the empty air. The shield warrior's entire body suddenly stopped behind that position. He turned around quickly, raised his round shield, and assumed a defensive posture toward his rear.
In his combat experience, if this attack fails, the opponent will probably have fled to his rear.
Hoping for the support of his companions, Xiye just wanted to delay as much time as possible, so after the initial sneak attack failed, he immediately changed his fighting strategy, even giving up his weapon and using both hands to hold a shield at the same time in an attempt to block the opponent. The upcoming attack - having fought against the opponent before, he knew that the strength of the opponent he suddenly encountered was definitely much higher than his own, but this method was also taught to him by their current captain, because The power used by both hands at the same time will definitely be able to make up for the power gap between the two sides to a certain extent.
The imagined backhand attack did not come. Xiye breathed a sigh of relief, and then tensed up her nerves again: Since the opponent did not seize this opportunity, he must have been hiding in other directions in the thick fog, waiting for the next opportunity to meet him. The mental relaxation——
call!
The sound of breaking through the sky caused the white mist in the sky to suddenly pass by him. Xiye screamed and hurriedly moved two steps to the other side. He was obviously frightened by the murderous passing just now. He glanced left and right in shock, and after confirming that nothing happened anymore, he held the back of the shield with both hands, and cautiously stepped forward with his waist crouched.
"Why haven't you arrived yet..."
The long sword with a cold air suddenly stretched out silently from the direction where he was before, and stabbed the ribs on his side. The shield warrior roared under the severe pain and tried to push the opponent away with his shield. The huge force had already pierced him with the long sword, and then followed the black shadow that suddenly rushed out from behind the fog. He pushed back.
The players beside the fog surrounding the mountain suddenly saw a figure flying out of the fog in front of them with splashes of blood. They suddenly looked towards the dividing line of the mist, only to see a shadow wearing a black cloak that turned and retreated.
"I wanted to remind you." Before leaving, the dark figure left the last words: "The sound inside... may not be effective."
It turns out she is a female player...
This was the last sentence left in Xiye's mind.
Paying vigilant attention to her surroundings, Xue Ling Huan Bing once again walked towards the top of the mountain road in the fog - or rather retreated, because she didn't know where she would reach if she went on. This was the second time that she had inexplicably returned to the entrance of the mountain road, and based on the distance she had run before, even if she had done it intentionally, there was absolutely no way for her to pull back this distance by physical means.
There was a faint sound of swords clashing in front of her. Her hands and feet slowed down a bit, but there was no excessive burden in her heart. Judging from the situation shown in the previous fog, she was very likely to encounter something. Before the fight ahead, he returned to the entrance of the mist due to some kind of teleportation. The shield warrior he met before was probably because of... his bad luck.
The next moment, the sound of wind coming from the thick fog interrupted her reverie.
A black figure emerged from the thick fog and came to her in an instant. However, the figure seemed to have been knocked away, so all that appeared in front of her was a back figure. Xue Ling Huan Bing, who reacted quickly, instantly got out of the flight path of the body, and then watched helplessly as the man disappeared into the thick fog with screams, and even the sound could no longer be heard.
Then, another person rushed out of the fog in front and shouted to the woman in black cloak: "Don't even think about running away... Huh?"
"You're not...you're his accomplice, are you?"
What a bad day today...
The woman sighed in her heart, then turned around and rushed into the thick fog on the other side.
