Chapter 196 Doubts
In the ruins of the former Holy City, now Efilan, in its core area, a team of more than thirty professionals and players are moving forward cautiously.
"According to the crystal in my hand, we are very close to the holy object we need to recover. It is in the ruins of the church in front."
At this time, the team's default The leader Sandra looked at the all-seeing crystal in her hand and reported the situation to the surrounding team members as usual.
“We’re finally here! After completing this task, I must go to Frost Harbor to have a good rest for a while!”
When a senior NPC professional saw what she said, he immediately cheered up, because they had fought many monsters along the way, and they had spent a lot of money on all aspects, and now they finally saw the hope of success.
"Yes! After this mission is completed, I will go back to my hometown and tell the people in the tavern about the adventure of Alfilan."
There is another NPC who heard what he said. Wan immediately agreed, with a bit of excitement flashing in his eyes.
But Sandra, who was holding the all-seeing crystal, raised her hand at this time to signal everyone not to continue the discussion. She said:
"The crystal shows that there is something hidden in the church in front. There are many powerful monsters. Let’s rest here for a while before going over. The next battle will be more difficult, so please be prepared for a hard fight.”
She stared at the dilapidated church in the distance ahead, several streets away from her current location, with a somewhat stern look on her face.
"What kind of monsters are there specifically? They won't be as strong as the previous dragons, right?"
When some players heard this, they immediately asked.
“No.”
Sandra answered immediately after hearing this.
"At least the crystal shows that there are no traces of monsters of that level around here, but there are ones one level weaker than the dragon, and there are more than one."
She then added in a serious tone.
"It's better if it's weaker than the dragon. We should be able to deal with it."
A player then echoed, they carefully fought all the way here, all kinds of monsters They have all seen a lot, and they are very clear that the strength of the demon dragon that suddenly appeared before is beyond the standard compared to other monsters. They cannot deal with the demon dragon not because they are too weak, but because the demon dragon is too powerful.
"The demonic dragon is so big and has such a strong aura. If it appears, we will definitely not be able to detect it. Moreover, the church in front cannot hold that kind of monster. There is no need to worry about it at all." There are also players from other aspects. It is inferred that there will be no more terrifying enemies at the demon dragon level in the surrounding area.
While everyone was resting and chatting, Wang Zhifan did not intervene. He was currently checking a new ring on his hand calmly in a corner. If any player can come into contact with this ring at this time, You will be surprised to find that it is an excellent item!
“The properties of this Demon Dragon Ring are indeed good, but unfortunately it is not very suitable for me now. I have not mastered any fire power at all, but I am good at the opposite ice power... It For me, it basically doesn’t have much effect. Maybe it can be used when I really need flames. "Put it on."
As Wang Zhifan is currently thinking, the ring he is thinking about is actually one of the rewards he got for killing the Hell Dragon, and he also has another reward in his pocket. It was in the space, but because it was too big and conspicuous, he didn't take it out to check.
As for when he got these two rewards, it had actually been a while. To be specific, it was shortly after everyone left the place where they killed the dragon a few hours ago. In order to prevent others from letting others Being suspicious, especially to prevent Andre, who had always been curious about him, from discovering the abnormality, he used a dream self clone to replace himself when passing a certain shelter, and at the same time, he activated a trick. Shadow Shoes' ground-burrowing ability allowed him to unknowingly run back to the previous location of the dragon, and then quickly completed the selection and collection of rewards, eliminating the reward light screen that had been hanging in front of him, and then used the same method to return at high speed to replace He returned to the Menga clone that appeared in front of everyone on his behalf during this process. He was so fast and so skilled that the surrounding NPCs and players did not notice that he had left midway.
Putting the taken-out Demonic Dragon Ring back into his pocket and putting it away, Wang Zhifan then raised his head and looked at the end point of the mission, which was the dilapidated church only a few hundred meters away from where everyone was currently resting. According to the leader The female warrior Sandra said that the so-called sacred object is among them.
But what makes Wang Zhifan feel strange at this moment is that even if he probes with the powerful perception brought by his extraordinary spiritual attributes, he can't feel the presence of any holy objects there. Instead, it is darkness. The smell of evil is very strong.
“This is already the central area of Efilan. All kinds of monsters are densely packed. It’s not abnormal for the dark and evil aura to be strong, but that holy object is too stretchy. Could it be that its aura is too strong? Unable to penetrate these darkness and evil to reveal a trace? ”
This is a question that Wang Zhifan is currently very confused about. He has some doubts about whether the so-called holy object that the All-Seeing Crystal led them to find is really a holy object. After all, something that can be called a holy object should not be too ordinary. Yes, even if you are among the most evil monsters, you should be able to shine a little brighter.
But doubts remain doubts. Wang Zhifan did not rely on his confidence in his own strength to rush over to investigate in advance. Without truly understanding the world, he decided to keep a low profile and act with others. , so that even if something unexpected happens and he encounters a particularly terrifying and powerful enemy, he doesn't have to handle it alone. At least there will be others who can delay him for a while.
In this way, about twenty minutes later, after everyone had rested and adjusted, they set out again, heading towards the final destination ahead.
Sandra showed the greatest caution during this process. Her eyes were fixed on the all-seeing crystal in her hand almost the whole time. If there was any slight disturbance, she would notify the people around her and let everyone know. The team followed a circuitous route she determined to be the safest and approached the church.
It must be said that her efforts were quite effective. At least no one encountered any accidents when they arrived at the side of the church, and only less than a hundred ordinary monsters were cleared along the way.
But when they came to the church, the real problem appeared in front of everyone.
They saw through the window of the church that there were four powerful monsters with two horns on their heads and two wings on their backs, guarding an altar in the center that exuded a terrifying dark atmosphere. There were many scattered broken human bones, and no trace of any sacred objects could be seen.
