Chapter 53 Battle

As the combat power ceiling of the entire server, Zhao Qing is still quite keen on clearing dungeons.

In addition, there was "inside information" that the community would be opened after the update. Zhao Qing, Wang Ergou and others were so busy playing to gain contribution points and prestige that they had no time to worry about tasks like "Red Cloud Lady" and "Red Robe Immortal" - the tasks were there anyway, so they had to gain enough contribution points and prestige to build the community first! After finally waiting until the class was over, Zhao Qing and others quickly lay down in the game cabin.

When I opened my eyes, I saw a brand new brick house - this was the "sect residence" building that Lani and some players had specially built in the past few days.

That's right, the condition for completing the task shared by Lu Renya is to build a sect building that meets the standards of the game task. After experiencing a series of operations such as thatched houses, wooden houses, and even buying houses from NPCs, everyone finally realized that only a proper house must be built by themselves. This is how this not-so-beautiful but still solid brick house came into being.

Now, this brick house has become a public "morgue" for players. Except for those players who have exchanged for disciple rooms in the sect, most players choose to go online and offline here.

Anyway, the teleportation array was already there, and it only took a few seconds for everyone to return to the sect, but it would take several more minutes to walk from the teleportation array to the dungeon entrance! The players who didn't want to waste a moment decisively chose to lie dead in the brick house instead of returning to the sect.

At this time, Zhao Qing, who had just entered the game, was dragging Han Yi, who had lost count of how many times he had cleared the dungeon, to queue up and enter the dungeon again.

The dungeons in "Ten Continents" are very strange. Compared with the fixed dungeon design in other games, the bosses in the secret dungeon "Cold Pond Cave" are completely random. Although the upper limit of the number of people in a team is five, sometimes, five people go in and only encounter one boss, and it is a very low-level monster. Not to mention the drops, even the contribution value and prestige value are pitifully small. Sometimes, more than a dozen bosses appear, making the confident solo player end up in regret.

Therefore, to be on the safe side, most of the time, players will form groups of several people to play together.

However, Zhao Qing and Han Yi often go to dungeons together, relying on one of them having high martial arts and the other being agile and able to walk away from monsters. At this time, if Wang Ergou and the Emperor are free, they will come to join them, but most of the time, it is the two of them who go to dungeons steadily, with a very high winning rate.

In the team, Han Yi said, "As usual, it depends on the number. If there are more than three, I will lead the monsters away and you fight them one by one. If there are more than five, we will just leave the dungeon and rearrange them!"

As for monsters that are less than three...of course each person will take on one!

“OK!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them passed through a thick fog and arrived at the copy.

The dungeon scene of [Cold Pond Cave] is very stunning, with large patches of stalactites reflecting the faint light of fluorescent fungi growing in the gaps between the black stone walls, and the crisp and ethereal sound of water drops hitting the ground and stalagmites. Looking up, there is endless darkness, as if it is an abyss upside down in the air.

If you meow into the Abyss, you'll hear the same meow from all directions - of course, that's just the echo.

The whole scene is not big, but the cave is full of stalagmites and the passages are disorganized. You never know where the monsters and bosses will suddenly appear, making it always difficult to guard against.

However, after many fancy ways of dying, the players have already gained experience and posted copy guides. Many of the tips were provided by Zhao Qing and Han Yi!

As soon as he entered the dungeon, Han Yi skillfully struck the ground with his spear, causing a dull echo.

Then, there seemed to be a faint sound, which was getting closer and closer.

This is a means of attracting monsters. Solid sound is better than air, and a not-too-loud sound can easily attract the attention of all the monsters. In stalactite caves like [Cold Pond Cave], although yelling can achieve the same effect, it is easy to cause collapse. Last time, a player was killed by a stalactite falling from his head.

Not long after, accompanied by a strange sound, two large, strange-looking birds fluttered over.

After seeing Zhao Qing and Han Yi, the two big birds suddenly rushed towards them with shining eyes, just like travelers who had struggled in the desert for three days.

This big bird looked difficult to deal with. Apart from other things, its size alone was much larger than the Nine Nether Demons that he had encountered before. Han Yi quickly raised his gun and rushed forward, only having time to say, "One for each person!" Zhao Qing was also stunned for a moment when she saw the two big birds. In the past few days, she had encountered mostly low-level demons and some miscellaneous low-level demons that were relatively easy to deal with. Although the Night Owl was also a low-level demon, it was the most difficult of the low-level demons because it could fly and was poisonous, and its attack power was comparable to that of a medium-level demon!

Zhao Qing, who had been familiar with the names and characteristics of various Nine Nether Demons under Baili Shuang's earnest teachings, hurriedly introduced: "This is the 'Calling Night Owl'! It is afraid of light and fire! It is full of poison! We must fight it quickly!"

"clear!"

As Han Yi spoke, he swept his gun across, pushing the aggressive Night Owl back several feet.

The big bird he hit turned over several times in the air, and then crashed into the stalactites beside it in a daze.

“Ah—Ah—”

A hoarse and unpleasant cry rang in his ears. Han Yi didn't know if it was an illusion. He just felt that the light around him seemed to be a lot dimmer. Fortunately, the players had their own night vision function. Although it would consume a lot of mana to keep it turned on all the time, it was still no problem to fight through the game.

After calling, the night owl flew straight towards Han Yi again. In the blink of an eye, its sharp red beak seemed to poke into Han Yi's eyes.

Han Yi quickly swung his gun to block, then stabbed several times in a rapid manner. No matter how the big bird dodged, it was still hit by several bullets. Black mist began to emerge from its body - this was a sign that the Nine Nether Demon was injured. They were all condensed from resentment and demonic energy. After death, except for the vital points, bones condensed from demonic energy or some fur - most of them were parts of the Nine Nether Demon's body, and very little flesh and blood would be left. Naturally, when injured, they would emit demonic energy.

Compared to Han Yi, who was very comfortable holding the spear, Zhao Qing felt a little embarrassed.

Although she knew many spells, and the "Tiangang Divine Thunder Art" she practiced was also known as the most lethal skill in the whole server, she was powerless when facing the agile and flying Night Owl. Thunder struck one after another, and Zhao Qing, whose blue bar was thick enough to be struck by thunder more than ten times, struck five or six times in a row, but did not even touch the edge of the big bird's feathers. In the process of flying back and forth to avoid it, the opponent was hit several times, and all of them were hit by the debuff of "Poisoning", which made her very angry.

"You bastard! You're the only one who can fly, right?"

Zhao Qing cursed angrily, then seized the opportunity and flew towards the Night Owl.

The night owl that was harassing Zhao Qing was overjoyed when it saw this. The tail feathers on its butt exploded with excitement. It flapped its wings and rushed towards Zhao Qing, revealing its sharp claws, looking as if it wanted to tear Zhao Qing to pieces.

Just as the man and the bird were about to collide with each other, a pair of huge metal copper hammers suddenly appeared in Zhao Qing's hands. Then, with a hideous smile, she hit the Night Owl with a hammer while the Night Owl had a human expression of fear and wanted to run away but it was too late to change lanes and it regretted it so much.

"ah--"

A shrill scream was heard, and the entire cave was filled with the echo of that sound. The other night owl that was being beaten by Han Yi was so scared that it shuddered, was stabbed again, and fell to the ground.

On the other side, the big bird's head was flattened after being hit by several hammers from Zhao Qing, and the whole bird seemed to have suffered a cruel corpse abuse - it was dead when the first hammer hit it, but Zhao Qing was so angry that he hit it a few more times.

Not long after, the big bird's body turned into a thick black mist, and then dissipated with a puff, as if everything just now was an illusion. Only a jet-black feather on the ground proved the battle.
