"Yes... Taseres!!?" When Mo Bei raised his head, he only saw a black dot flashing into the clouds, but the domain-level banshee scream was still quite recognizable.
At such a distance, this scream was still extremely penetrating and contained a strong intimidation effect, causing a dozen crows circling above the team to panic and emit loud cries.
"What is it doing?" someone in the team asked in surprise.
"Obviously they plan to hide their presence and wait for the teams to distance themselves before launching a sneak attack."
"I can see this too, I mean why is it called like that."
"Maybe you want to put pressure on us in this way? But it always feels a bit redundant..."
"It is indeed contradictory. Even for this purpose, there is no need to hide in a hurry. Or wait until nightfall when the light is the darkest to launch a surprise attack. Wouldn't it be more threatening?"
While everyone was fighting the oncoming monsters, they were analyzing the banshee's confusing behavior in order to make the right response.
"Is it possible that it is just bluffing? In fact, it has other purposes, such as guarding the Purgatory Mirror?"
Mo Bei gave his own guess. He repeatedly recalled Taseris's previous performances. He always felt that this banshee seemed not very smart. She would scream when she got angry, just like that. A brainless rich girl who is extremely pampered and willful. And the inexplicable behavior just now seemed to further expose this character flaw.
"It's not unreasonable!" A paladin in the center of the team affirmed this guess, raised his scepter with a wave of his hand, and said loudly:
"Keep the formation and advance at full strength! We are responsible for the vigilance! Clear out those demon trebuchets as soon as possible, and then close the distance with other teams."
This paladin's name was Regeas, and he was the one Mo Bei met at the remote teleportation station. The gathering was large this time, and teams like Mo Bei and others did not have clear tasks and arrangements. When they saw someone with a familiar face, they joined with their friends.
This was not the first time for Regias to accept such a transfer. He was quite familiar with the situation around Harrogas and even deep in the Arreat Mountains, so he took over the responsibility of team leader as soon as he arrived.
But this four-man team, which was the backbone of the whole group, had hardly done anything seriously since leaving the city, which made Mo Bei a little disappointed.
Originally, I wanted to see how these real elders were doing, but it turned out that these four people were only responsible for vigilance and protecting others as much as possible when accidents occurred, and they did not interfere in the current battle at all.
In order to hone his fighting skills with long handles and his desire to upgrade, he killed extremely hard.
The revered halberd caused a big loss to Taseres in the first battle. For these monsters, it is naturally an absolute killer. Including the helmet, the total is 75% of the crushing blow. The high physical damage also reduces defense and resistance. Wherever the sharp edge reaches, the picture is beautiful.
This time the team was much stronger than when Nora led the team. Even with the threat of Taseris, these people would not be too timid because of this. They were making great progress along the way, almost No obstacles were encountered.
As the battle progressed, the sun hidden behind the clouds gradually set towards the west, and soon disappeared completely. Looking across the entire hill, one can only see the flames of various spells and explosions.
Logically speaking, this is the best time for the banshee to attack. After a while, the visibility will be improved by the scattered moonlight until dawn.
The maximum distance between each team that can see each other is maintained. This is discussed before departure. Under this distance, once one of the teams is attacked, both sides can provide reinforcements in a short time.
But the night passed, and until it was close to noon the next day, the battle was still going on, but Taseres never appeared.
At this time, they had already pushed through the defensive belt filled with demon trebuchets. Perhaps Warlord Shank had also been killed by one of the teams, but the monster's momentum had not slowed down significantly.
This also proved Mo Bei's guess from the side that the operation on the highlands was not going smoothly and there should be some kind of interference.
In fact, the location of the Purgatory Mirror is not too difficult to find. After all, there is a general direction. As long as you find the torrent of monsters that continue to flow towards the bloody hills, you only need to trace the source.
Usually, this process doesn't take too long. Even on several occasions, the purgatory mirror was discovered and destroyed by the scouts before the monsters launched a group attack. And now that the number of monsters is not decreasing, it can only show that the movement is hindered.
In this case, the teams integrated for a while and continued to advance towards the frozen highlands. They looked menacing, as if they had been let go by the banshee and wanted to take the initiative to settle the score with it.
Mo Bei actually felt that it was very refreshing to upgrade with such a super monster spawning point, but this was only for him personally. If equipment could be repaired with just one click like in the game, then many of the current problems would disappear.
After the entire battle, the equipment losses of all combatants accumulated. For Rasuk and his craftsmen, the workload was already quite heavy, and the repair work they were responsible for was far more than that.
In addition, chaotic battles are often fought regardless of the cost, and it is difficult to maintain a balance between income and consumption. Over time, it has become a major problem for Harrogas, and there is a serious shortage of logistical supplies.
What's more, no one can guarantee that if the purgatory mirror is left alone, a second or third one will appear in a short period of time, until it causes a serious problem. .
This made Mo Bei have to doubt that the cost of forming the purgatory mirror and continuously pouring out monster projections must be high. With such huge energy and original power, could it be that Baal really grabbed it from the World Stone? ?
The original roads and stairs between the mountains have long been destroyed or completely collapsed. Both humans and monsters can only walk through the rocks and fight.
But after climbing over a few mountains, the terrain became much flatter. Looking around, there were countless ruins on the elevated foundations. This was the Frozen Highlands, the second frontier after Harrogas Fortress.
The vast area between here and the Arreat Plateau is where the mirror images of purgatory appear constantly. However, many monsters are diverted by the ruins in front of them, and there is no direct direction.
These town ruins were also used by monsters to build many fortifications, and demon trebuchets were hidden among them. Although they were very rough, they also caused a lot of obstacles to everyone's advancement.
As soon as Mo Bei used the Fist of Heaven to beat the demons and goblins on a tower into ashes, he saw a flash of fire, and another ugly little demon appeared on top. He made gestures with his two claws in front of him and then sprayed. A blazing flame burst out and swept downwards.
The tower looked crooked, but it didn't fall down. Just when Mo Bei wanted Perona to make a series of meteorite falls on the tower, he felt a surging spiritual power surge in the crowd, and then the ground trembled violently, like It shook like a wave, and earth fire lava spurted out from time to time, completely destroying the tower and a nearby remaining wall.
