Chapter 142

Holy Snow Peak, the second gray neutral zone that appeared after the opening of the Vazetilan continent, is adjacent to the Winter Hunting City in the east and the Vazetilan town in the west.

Xia Mo lowered his head and looked carefully at the map in his hand.

If she were a player from Vazetilan, where would she consider attacking?

His fingers gently stroked along border lines 2, 3, and 4.

No. 4 is located on the southern plains. It is a large flat land without any shelter. Anyone who comes here will be discovered immediately.

No. 3 is a very deep canyon. If you want to cross this line, you must first solve the problem of building a bridge or flying.

There is only No. 2. The surrounding terrain is neither open nor cut off, and is only separated by the Holy Snow Mountain Peak with a relatively low altitude. If you want to attack, No. 2 is definitely the best choice.

After closing the map, Xia Mo rode his little black horse towards the mountain.

When she reached the foot of the Holy Snow Mountain, she retrieved her mount.

The fleeting light was about halfway up the mountain. It took more than ten minutes to climb up, but there was no strange trace in the white snow.

Xia Mo frowned and was observing carefully, when suddenly another reflection fell on her face!

Bang!

The sound of bullets firing rang out almost simultaneously.

Xia Mo reacted quickly and fell to the ground the moment he saw the reflected light. The bullet missed and hit a pine tree behind him, causing snow fragments to fall down.

Countless gun barrels protruded from all sides, bang, bang, bang, bullets were fired like they were free, sparking in the biting cold.

Ice protection!

The light blue ice that was propped up blocked several bullets for her, but then it broke on its own and turned into a pool of broken ice.

The ice couldn't block the bullets, but it provided Xia Mo with a perfect opportunity to get up and counterattack.

She supported herself on the ground with one hand and stood up. The Star Staff rotated with her body, drawing a perfect circle. A loud rumbling sound echoed in her ears, and the group attack skill Comet Storm blew the attacker's gun barrel into pieces!

Accelerate, run, S-shape!

She rushed into the crowd of attackers, blasting each one she caught. With her already high-damage skills and the addition of critical hits, the attackers hiding in the dark fell one after another.

In the end, there were still two people who had not fallen, and the health bars above their heads showed that they still had half a bar of health.

Xia Mo narrowed his eyes and found that these two people were different from the ones who fell to the ground just now. All those who fell to the ground were NPCs, and only they two were players.

The player's attributes are stronger than the NPC's, and he can withstand her attacks.

Both of them were elementalists, and as soon as their life-saving skills ended, they immediately surrounded her and launched a counterattack.

"Little Stone, kill her! Killing someone from the enemy continent in neutral territory will earn you a kill honor!"

"Okay, bro, I'll definitely kill her within three moves!"

The elementalist named Xiao Shitou ran in a circle, throwing skills as he ran, and gorgeous special effects fell on the head of the female star official in the middle. He thought it could deal good damage, but the value that popped up was much lower than expected, and the last big move was missed.

Is she wearing a tortoise shell? How come her defense is so high!

Gritting his teeth unwillingly, he threw out the ice chain in an instant.

If they could lock her up, even if it was only for 3 seconds, they would definitely win!

The plan is beautiful, but the reality is cruel.

With her absolute advantage in agility, no skill could trap Xia Mo. She jumped and instantly broke free from the chains under her feet. Then she blew a whistle, and a big bird with wings swooped down from the sky, grabbed her directly, and threw her down the mountain.

"ah--!"

Before I could even see my shadow, I was thrown down.

[Successfully complete the kill and gain kill honor +2]

Xia Mo had a calm expression. She waved away the bullet frame and rushed out with the Star Staff. Her speed was so fast that the opponent fell down after being hit by three critical hits in a row before she could react.

[Successfully complete the kill and gain kill honor +2]

Xia Mo thought that after this man died, he would disappear from the spot like those question marks, but he didn't expect that he didn't leave, nor did he choose to resurrect. He just lay in the snow in a mess.

【You are strong】A bubble popped up above his head.

Xia Mo chuckled: "You don't need to tell me, I know."

After saying that, he began to examine the debris scattered on the ground: the iron pieces that fell from the barrel, the scope that was broken into several pieces, the paper map that was mostly burned... and a letter.

letter?

She bent down, picked it up, brushed off the dust and snow, and unfolded it.

The male elementalist lying dead on the snow next to him could not move or make any facial expressions, but Xia Mo could clearly feel the tension in his body.

Letter is the key, he is nervous.

In that case, it’s even more worth watching.

In front of the corpse, Xia Mo read ten lines at a glance, but his eyes gradually became colder during the process.

I didn’t expect it to be like this…

It’s really not the fault of the players on the Pergas continent, because this problem has been unsolvable from the beginning.

After putting the letter into his backpack, the corpse still hadn't revived. Instead, another sentence popped up above his head: [But no matter how strong you are, you can't stop the vast army of the Vazetilan continent.]

After he finished speaking, a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he turned into a ray of light and disappeared.

After returning to Border Line No. 2 from the Holy Snow Mountain, Xia Mo did not delay and went straight to the sergeant to tell him that there was enemy detection on the hillside.

Unexpectedly, he, who was supposed to be guarding the border, not only didn't take her suggestion seriously, but instead laughed out loud: "Warrior, if we were to be as tense as you every day, alerting the entire city at the slightest sign of trouble, would our soldiers ever get to rest?"

"Let's go, let's go. As a civilian, it's best for you to stay out of the border business."

In places where the emperor is far away, there are especially many people who hold positions but do nothing.

Xia Mo's brows turned cold: "Then return the military supplies I sent."

It's just a task, she doesn't want it.

The sergeant's expression suddenly changed, and then he showed a flattering expression: "Don't be like this, those supplies are all good things~"

Xia Mo sneered: "Then take the money and send a pigeon to the royal city for me."

Sergeant: "Okay, I'll send someone to pass on the message later."

Xia Mo: "No, I want it now."

The food is eaten by the mouth and the gift is given by the hand. The supplies were brought by her. The captain of the soldiers was afraid that she would take them back, so he did not dare to talk back or delay. He quickly called someone over and whispered something in his ear.

Not long after, the young soldier brought a fat pigeon and threw it into the sky in front of her and the captain of the soldiers. The pigeon flapped its wings a few times and flew towards the royal city.

That's about right.

Without even giving them a glance, Xia Mo mounted her horse and headed towards Spoons City. After completing the two tasks in hand, she received a good reward from the mercenary hall.

As for the matter of the letters in the backpack, she can put it aside for the time being. She now plans to try the new gameplay that has been opened in the mainland - tower climbing.

The tower is located on a floating island and has a total of 100 floors. The challenges on each floor are different. The tower extends all the way to the clouds, towering so high that its top cannot be seen. The scene is very spectacular.

When the floating island was first opened, it attracted countless players to challenge it.

I guess the island is bustling with activity now.

Players need to contact the NPC on land to teleport to the island, but if they have a flying mount, they can also let the mount take them up.

As soon as he saw the huge crowds of heads on the ground, Xia Mo immediately gave up the idea of ​​looking for NPCs. He blew the whistle and Xiaoyi appeared.

“Take me to the island.”

Following her command, Xiaoyi grabbed the back of her collar and fluttered her up into the air.

Nowadays, almost every player has a mount, but Xia Mo is probably the only one in the entire continent who can serve as both a battle pet and a mount.

Many people looked up and sighed with envy.

In less than half a minute, Xia Mo was brought to the beautiful floating island. The tower was located in the center of the island. Looking at the tower ranking list, hundreds of people had already climbed to the 10th floor or above.

The top three on each floor of the tower will receive high experience value rewards. Without further ado, she immediately pushed open the tower door and dived in.

For Xia Mo, the first 20 floors were as easy as crushing an ant. It was as if he had a rocket tied to his body. He rushed to the 21st floor and successfully won the first honor from the 15th to the 20th floors.

【Congratulations, you have reached level 34! 】

Although upgrading is a happy thing, Xia Mo feels unwilling to accept the loss of the No. 1 honor on the 21st floor.

She was almost there, just a tiny bit, and the first place would have been hers, but at the last second, Assassin Daydream took the lead.

Yes, it's him again.

The daydream of the independent player who won the second place in the difficult level 15 dungeon experimental cage and later ran into her in the Yakat Cave because of a similar task to hers.

I didn't expect that after less than half a year, we would meet here on the battlefield.

His strong desire to win would not allow him to lose to him. Xia Mo's eyes focused and he immediately rushed to the 22nd floor.

She had climbed this tower before, but not as one of the first batch of players. Instead, she came in with the second or third batch. After all, she was a priest at that time, and her damage was too low. If she followed the first batch of players in to challenge, she would definitely die.

In other words, when climbing 20-30 floors, her level was higher than it is now, and all her attributes except output were better than they are now.

There is motivation only when there is pressure, and being afraid of losing has never been her character.

The monsters on the 22nd floor swarmed over after sensing her entry. Xia Mo first used [Mark of the Undead] to mark three monsters as her helpers.

This trick always works.

The helper monsters helped her hold back some of her colleagues, while she devoted her energy to dealing with others. After several rounds of roaming and bombing, soon there were only three helper monsters left in the tower.

"Goodbye, friends. Thank you for your hard work and help."

As soon as he finished speaking, the skill exploded and the helper monster was reduced to ashes.

[Successfully cleared the 22nd floor of the Tower of Babel, current ranking: 2]

2? Why 2 again?!

Xia Mo was speechless and immediately went to look up the rankings of the Tower of Babel.

Damn, my daydream got me there again.

His result was still only a few seconds faster than hers, but he was undoubtedly in first place, as if he was showing off and flaunting his power.

Xia Mo clenched his fists, drank a bottle of stamina potion, and rushed into the 23rd floor.
