Chapter 494 Falling from the Sky
Ma Lu regretted not asking the player he met before where the town was.
He now looked at the same scenery in all directions and had no sense of direction at all.
Finally, he decided to try his luck in the direction the player was heading, because the latter had just killed a blue goblin and was probably planning to return to the city with the loot.
Before Ma Lu left, he looked at the ground again. The previous skeleton had been torn into pieces by the blue goblin who just passed by, and the head of the blue goblin corpse on the ground was also broken. Gone.
Well, it seems that he misunderstood, and those who came should not be family members.
Ma Lu walked very carefully. If he saw any wild monsters from a distance, he would try to avoid them.
However, some wild monsters discovered him first. Just 10 minutes ago, he was almost beaten by three black-skinned goblins.
But this also made Ma Lu discover one thing by accident, that is, his speed seems to be okay. Before playing in Chiling, he felt that the monsters were average martial arts masters, and each one was more difficult to beat.
Actually, a large part of the reason is because the skeleton he controls moves too slowly.
As the saying goes, the only martial arts in the world that cannot be broken is fast.
The converse is also the same. If you are naturally slower than others, then of course it will be difficult to fight.
After Ma Lu realized this truth, he felt a lot more at ease.
It doesn’t matter if you can’t fight, just run away.
Just when he was thinking this, he met two more goblins, this time they were yellow-skinned.
Malu made preparations and moved his wrists and ankles, intending to break through their blockade with speed.
Unexpectedly, just as I took one foot out, there was a sudden whooshing sound in the air.
Then he saw the two goblins opposite who were still alive and kicking suddenly turned into sieves.
Their bodies were riddled with holes, and they fell straight down.
A name suddenly appeared in Malu's mind - Shadow Bee! Also nicknamed Ding Dang Dang by players.
The reason why it is called this is because every time you encounter a shadow bee, the bone will make a clanking sound when its sting is hit.
But generally speaking, it’s not a big problem, it’s just that some of the stubble has been knocked off.
But the problem is that Malu is not a skeleton now, but a body of flesh and blood.
The two yellow-skinned goblins had just demonstrated it to him personally, and in the blink of an eye they had achieved the achievement of piercing the heart with ten thousand needles.
And those shadow bees soon found new prey after killing the two goblins, and they all flew towards this direction.
Malu didn't waste any time, turned around and ran away. He knew that he must not be caught up by these shadow bees, otherwise his life would be decided here.
He used all his strength from feeding, and the soles of his feet were almost running away and smoking, but the distance between him and the swarm was still shrinking.
Ma Lu decisively changed his strategy and ran to the place where he met the goblins before, letting those goblins serve as bait for him to delay the shadow bees.
After pulling two waves of goblins behind him, the number of bees in the swarm was obviously reduced, but it was still not something Ma Lu could deal with, and what was even worse was that his physical strength was about to bottom out.
Ma Lu usually doesn’t like to exercise much. Although he relies on lotus leaf carbon cakes to maintain his figure, he is also the kind of person who is not good at it but not useful. It is still different from what others have practiced seriously.
After sprinting vigorously for a while, I couldn't stand it anymore. My legs became weak and I was breathing heavily.
No way, he has survived so many storms and waves, is it possible that he is going to die in the game?
Ma Lu's head was in a trance, and his body was also in a trance. Then he stepped on a stone the size of a fist and twisted his ankle.
After becoming limping, he could no longer run. He gritted his teeth, took out a chef's knife, turned around, and planned to fight with those shadow bees. At this moment, Malu saw a small black dot approaching quickly from behind the swarm.
Another glimmer of hope appeared in Malu's eyes!
He recognized the person who was coming, it was the skeleton puppy controlled by Zhen Ye!
However, the Shadow Bees arrived first, and the four leading ones fired their stingers without hesitation.
The sharp bee sting made a sound of piercing the air and flew toward the Malu Island!
Ma Lu was already trying his best to dodge, but his movements were still not as fast as the bee needle, and he flew in front of him in the blink of an eye.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, the scarf given to him by the wandering warlock suddenly left his neck, opened in the wind, and turned into a barrier in front of Malu, blocking those deadly poisonous needles for him.
Waiting for Malu to relax, the second wave of poisonous needles arrived again!
The scarf in front of him once again showed its power and once again blocked the attack for him.
If Ma Lu remembered correctly, the wandering warlock seemed to have said that this scarf could only be used three times, which meant that it could block one more attack at most.
I don’t know if it’s enough.
Fortunately, Zhen Ye arrived faster than he expected. It seemed that she had been upgraded again during this period. She had almost no green bones left in her body and was basically of blue or higher quality.
She dove into the swarm, waving her claws.
Although the Shadow Bees chased someone very embarrassingly, they were only considered low-level wild monsters in the abyss. Especially when facing undead enemies, their proud bee stingers were so powerful against them. The skeleton, which had holes all over its body, was basically scratching its itch.
The skeletons' attacks on their fragile bodies are enough to kill them, making them one of the players' favorite monsters.
Although Shadow Bees do not drop bones, their bee stings can be purchased by NPCs in large quantities in the town, and they can be exchanged for money when taken back.
Zhen Ye's skeleton puppy descended from the mountain like a tiger, and within a short time, more than a dozen Shadow Bees died in her hands.
The Shadow Bees want to attack from a high place, but Zhen Ye’s skeleton puppy can jump three meters high in one jump. The Shadow Bees will be caught to pieces if they are not careful.
After they realized that they were no match for the enemy in front of them, they quickly retreated.
The skeleton puppy also ran to Malu's side immediately.
“Are you okay!”
"It's okay."
Although the scene just now was thrilling, under the double protection of the scarf and Zhen Ye, Ma Lu was not injured.
The scarf that had just made a great contribution was now back on Malu's neck, lying quietly on his shoulders.
“But this time it’s quite extreme, thanks to you arriving in time.”
“Are you an NPC, or have you changed to a new skin?” Zhen Ye sniffed at Ma Lu’s feet. He sniffed and said doubtfully.
"I..." Ma Lu opened his mouth, thought for a while and said, "I am an NPC."
"You are lying. No NPC would say that he is an NPC." Zhen Ye was not fooled.
“…Hi, okay, this is my new skin. But it’s still in closed beta, remember to keep it a secret for me.”
“Everyone knows now what secret it is. . Hey, didn’t you design this event?”
