◎【You have been matched with the Beishan Wolf team】◎

With a knife in hand, he was suddenly startled. What was going on? Wasn't it said that the monsters in the Endless Abyss spawned very slowly? They had formed a team specifically to farm monsters here because of this. How could another wave of flamingos appear?!

He turned his head in disbelief and looked in the opposite direction.

They saw a huge group of flamingos rushing towards them, spitting flames from their mouths from time to time. Where the flames were sprayed, the ground was burned black, and the air was filled with a strong smell of burning.

"Brother Dao, we didn't see any flamingos when we came here just now! How come there are so many of them all of a sudden?" Dugu Lang drank a bottle of big red potion, raised his health a bit, and then fought hard. Unfortunately, his blue was almost gone. If he wanted to replenish his blue, he had to wait for the 1-minute cooling time of the red potion to pass.

With a knife in hand, he angrily scolded, "How the hell do I know where the flamingo came from?! There's no point in saying this now. Kill the monster, kill the monster quickly!"

After saying that, he finished off the flamingo closest to him and knocked it to the ground. Seeing this, the others stopped talking and quickly replenished their health and mana. For a moment, a corner of the map was full of light, and gorgeous skills flew all over the sky, colliding with the flames of the flamingo, making a constant puffing sound of collision in their ears.

With a knife in hand, he tried his best to attract aggro, while Dugu Lang and his four companions tried their best to output damage. Although it was very strenuous, they managed to withstand two whole waves of flamingos!

After chopping the last flamingo to death, he spat with his knife in his hand: "Damn it, what bad luck!"

When we were trying to kill monsters, we didn't run into any flamingos. Two groups of them came at once without us being prepared. Fortunately, all five of them were damage dealers and were not afraid of killing monsters. Otherwise, we really couldn't tell who would win or lose!

With a knife in hand, he glanced at his own and Dugu Lang's health bars, feeling somewhat unhappy: "Let's find a place to hide first and replenish our health before going out."

Otherwise, with the five of them having less than 20% health left, if they encounter another wave of monsters, the outcome will be unpredictable.

Sometimes what you think will happen. With a knife in hand, you just took a few steps and suddenly, there was a rumbling vibration under your feet!

The next second, Dugu Lang howled miserably, "Brother Dao... here comes another wave of flamingos!"

Another wave? This shit is never going to end! With a knife in hand, he twisted his brows fiercely. Upon hearing this, the others turned around and saw the alchemist, who had previously disappeared into the flock of birds, suddenly reappear and run towards them. Behind her was a large group of flamingos chasing after her. It was estimated that in another seven or eight seconds, they would lead the monsters to rush towards them!

With a knife in hand, his face turned pale. Only then did he realize that the second wave and the third wave of flamingos were deliberately lured by her to deal with them!

Dugu Lang also reacted and took a few steps back in fear: "Brother Dao, we can't fight anymore, let's run."

With so little health left, Flamingo doesn't even need to use any skills; it can kill one of them with just one kick.

Upon hearing this, the others nodded vigorously, and their feet involuntarily wanted to run back.

With a knife in hand, he glared at Dugu Lang and the others angrily, fuming: "Cowards! A few flamingos scared you like this! No one is allowed to run away today. Drink the medicine and beat me to death!"

Dugu Lang had a sad face, thinking that even if they drank the medicine, it would be useless. The alchemist had attracted such a large group of flamingos in an instant. How could the five of them possibly defeat him?

But he didn't dare to talk back to Yidao in his hand. He pursed his lips and sighed. He made up his mind and didn't even drink the medicine. He ran head-on into the flamingo!

The flamingo's attack power is actually not low, but this is relative to Xia Li, who is level 27. As for Dugu Lang and the others, the flamingo swept out a flame and easily swept Dugu Lang and another mage to the ground.

The other two archers barely escaped. Xia Li saw that the two men were shooting arrows while dodging back and forth. Although their movements were clumsy, they at least got some breathing space.

However, it's time to call it a day.

Xia Li smiled lightly, quickly stepped to the side, and threw out three blue bottles at the same time. She seemed to have turned on the acceleration effect, and disappeared from the sight of Yidaozhai in an instant!

The blue bottle was thrown accurately at the heads of Yidaozaishou and the other two shooters. With a bang, the bottle exploded, and a stream of extremely cold air poured from the head to the feet.

With a knife in his hand, he was stunned for a moment, not realizing what skill this was. As a result, when he wanted to take a step to pull the monster, he suddenly found that his feet could not move!

Not only him, but also Archer Juanjuan and Little Bun were unable to move. They both exclaimed at the same time: "Brother Dao, we're under the freezing debuff!"

"I know! You don't have to tell me!" Yi Dao was so angry that he cursed. Damn it, I didn't expect the alchemist to have such a supporting skill. What should I do? There are only 3 seconds left in the freezing time, there are still 9 flamingos, and the health of the three of them is only 5%...

Xia Li looked at the three people who fell to the ground one after another from afar, her lips curled up slightly. A group of low-level players under level 20 actually wanted to compete with her? She didn't know whether to say they were fearless or brave but reckless.

There are few flamingos in the Endless Abyss and they refresh slowly. Theoretically, it is impossible for her to attract so many monsters by herself, but don't forget that she also has a lava beast named Xiaoguai who was born and raised in the Endless Abyss.

Before being tamed by Xia Li, Xiaoguai not only gnawed on the rocks and soil on the cliff for food, but sometimes also ran to the ground to catch flamingos to fill his stomach. Although the meat of flamingos was tough and not tasty, it was better than going hungry every day.

Over time, Xiaoguai naturally remembered which point specifically refreshed the flamingos. Just now, Xia Li gave Xiaoguai an order to drive the flamingos in the nearest range to the stone mountain. After receiving the order, Xiaoguai ran to the two points with ease and drove the flamingos all the way to Xia Li's side.

Then Xia Li took over on this end, using skills to lead the flamingo towards Yidaozhaishou, so there was a scene where Yidaozhaishou saw her pulling a group of monsters towards them.

After the accident just now, the number of players in the Endless Abyss increased unnoticed. Looking at the way they were searching everywhere, Xia Li guessed that they were all here for Golov's mission.

The old elf's ghost was hard to find. This group of players ran back and forth in the map, running in circles, but they didn't even find the shadow of the ghost.

After struggling for over twenty minutes, a female priest named Lovely Peach Blossom sighed deeply and long, "What the hell? There aren't any ghosts here. I'm afraid Golov is lying to the players!"

After a while, another person ran back to her side. Judging from his attire, he was a thief with an ID on his head - Tough Cactus.

Taohua's eyes lit up slightly, and she asked Cactus, "How's it going? Did you find it?"

Cactus pursed his lips and shook his head: "No, I've run everywhere."

"Ah, how could this happen..." The light in her eyes just rose, but then quickly dimmed with her companion's words. Taohua said with a worried look on her face, somewhat frustrated, "Why don't we just not do this mission? There are other activities during the celebration anyway, so this one won't make a difference."

"No," Cactus shook his head, interrupting Taohua's thoughts. "The rewards for other activities are just small gift packs, but this limited-time mission is the only reward for equipment, and it's precious purple equipment. Haven't you always wanted to get better equipment? This is a rare opportunity, right here at your doorstep. Don't pass it up."

"But I can't find it..." Taohua fiddled with her fingers in frustration. After a moment's silence, she continued to persuade the other party, "Zhang Zhang, you should go back and do the dungeon with your vice-chairman. Didn't he criticize you a few days ago for always missing guild activities? If you don't go this time, you'll be expelled from Bohu West Bank."

Cactus smiled helplessly, reached out and touched Taohua's soft head, and said with a bit of restrained intimacy: "It doesn't matter, as long as I can be with you, I'm happy to do anything."

Taohua whimpered and blinked her big eyes at Cactus. "But I don't want you to leave Fiery Fury because of me. You said you wanted to be an indomitable female thief, and Fiery Fury is the top guild specializing in training high-level combat mages and high-sensitivity thieves. If you lose this platform because of me, I will be very unhappy, you know!"

Cactus smiled helplessly and withdrew his hand: "I know that Taohua is the person who cares about me the most in this world."

"Well, of course!" Taohua raised her cute little chin, stretched out her hand and stood on tiptoe, gently poking the other person's forehead. "Okay, I know Bohu West Bank is urging you again, so hurry back. I'll take a look around here for a while. What if I find the ghost?"

Cactus hesitated for a moment. "Are you sure it's okay to go alone?"

Taohua patted her chest and said, "Don't worry, I'm a pastor, a super pastor from Fengyun Tianxia! I have a way to save my life."

Hearing her say this, Cactus bit his lower lip and finally said, "Okay, I'll go back first. If there's anything, be sure to tell me. I'll get back to you as soon as I see it! Remember, don't try to be brave alone!"

"Go ahead."

Waving her hand, Taohua sent the cactus away. "Zhang Zhang is getting stronger and stronger. I can't always hold her back. I have to complete today's mission even if I have to run myself to pieces!"

Just as she finished speaking, Taohua suddenly saw a vague figure in front of her. She thought it must be a player who came to do the Golov mission, so she made a plan in her mind and followed quietly.

Xia Li heard light footsteps behind her. Although she could feel that the other party was trying his best to control his pace, in the eyes of Xia Li, an old PK player, these little tricks were not enough for her.

Seeing that the other party seemed to have no ill intentions and was just following her foolishly, Xia Li smiled faintly, pretended to be ignorant, and continued walking forward.

After going around the small rocky mountain that led to the endless abyss, Xia Li finally saw a century-old tree covered with bumps in a very inconspicuous corner behind the mountain. The tree was laden with black fruits that were the kind that you wouldn't even think of eating at first glance.

But it is this kind of fruit that is the key for players to find the souls of the dead.

So, under the foolish observation of the people in the dark, Xia Li used her skills to knock down three fruits, stuffed one into her mouth, and put the other two into her backpack.

After chewing the fruit for a few times and swallowing it, a prompt popped up on the system.

[You ate the spiritual fruit, spiritual communication time is 3 minutes]

Xia Li turned off the prompt and looked around at the same time. The ghosts that she had been unable to find before appeared one after another.

This is the most tricky part of this mission. Players must eat the psychic fruit of the knotty tree in order to see the ghosts with the naked eye. Otherwise, they will not be able to find any trace of the ghosts.

In her previous life, she spent a lot of time on this level, and finally she accidentally discovered this knotty tree. She bravely tried it and accidentally discovered the task skills.

The 3-minute communication time was too short to support her in communicating with the 8 ghosts, so she ate the 2 fruits stored in her backpack one by one, and finally succeeded in conveying the queen's good news to the 8 ghosts.

The taskbar prompted her to return and hand in the quest. Xia Li was about to return to the city when the little tail that had been quietly following her before suddenly appeared. "Hello, my name is the lovely Taohua, and I'm a priest in Fengyun Tianxia. I'd like to ask, can I find the souls of the dead by eating that fruit?"

Xia Li glanced at Taohua's ID and found that she had no impression of this priest. However, the guild name under her ID could not be wrong, so she said lightly: "Well, that is the psychic fruit. If you eat it, you can see the souls of the dead."

Taohua exclaimed in admiration, "Master Lihua, you are so amazing! How do you even know this?"

I've only heard that this great god is very good at completing dungeons and killing monsters, but I didn't expect that he is also much more meticulous than her in doing this kind of task. So this is the gap between her and the great god. Woo woo woo, the more Taohua thought about it, the more she felt like rubbish. After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but lower her head in shame.

Xia Li naturally noticed the change in her expression, so she adjusted her tone and comforted her: "Observe more, try more, you can do it too."

"Really?" Taohua blinked her watery eyes.

Xia Li smiled and nodded: "Of course, if you have any questions in the future, just ask everyone in the guild. If no one can answer you, you can also ask me privately."

They were all from the same guild, and she could sense that the priest in front of her had a simple nature, so why would she refuse to help if she could?

Taohua jumped for joy at her open-hearted acceptance. "Goddess Lihua, you're so kind! You're much better than those Fiery Fury guys!"

After saying that, he suddenly realized that he had stepped on the other party's minefield and hurriedly covered his mouth: "S-Sorry, I shouldn't have said that."

Xia Li smiled faintly: "Nothing."

You can't stop others from discussing the matter just because she has a conflict with Long Yan and his group. She is not the type of person to make decisions arbitrarily.

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first." After Xia Li said that, she called Xiaoguai back, then stepped onto Xiaoguai's back and left the endless abyss in a graceful and elegant manner.

Taohua stared at her back in a daze. What a great god! She really made the right choice in Fengyun Tianxia.

Back when she and Zhang Zhang were choosing a guild, they had a long struggle. Zhang Zhang was a thief, so if he wanted to pursue a career, he'd choose the Blaze and Fury, a guild full of mages and thieves. As a cleric, she particularly wanted to join the Wind and Cloud World, a guild known for its clerics.

Unfortunately, everyone in the game knows that Fengyun Tianxia and Lieyan Nuhuo are at odds with each other. Lieyan Nuhuo's former vice president, Long Yan, has repeatedly attacked Fengyun's people. If Fengyun's people had not been prepared in advance, I'm afraid few guilds could withstand Long Yan's tossing.

Because of this, she hesitated for a long time, wondering whether she should join the guild that was hostile to Zhang Zhang. She was afraid that joining two guilds that did not get along with each other would affect their relationship. But in the end, she figured it out: the guild is the guild, and individuals are individuals. As long as two people trust each other, no one can change them.

Facts have proved that her decision was correct. President Baili Xi is gentle and steady, Vice President Qing Zhengyu is peaceful and not arrogant, and there are powerful masters like Xia Ri Lihua leading them to open up new areas. She believes that she and the entire guild will develop better and better. By then, she will definitely catch up with Zhang Zhang and become the person Zhang Zhang is most proud of!

Xia Li returned to the royal city to find Golov and successfully completed the task.

Golov looked at her with satisfaction, praised her behavior, and gave her the first precious purple piece of equipment in the alchemist set - [Boots of the Dead].

[Ghost Boots: Precious purple equipment, physical strength +26, magic +25, intelligence +21, agility +31]

Unlike the Elven Boots she obtained in her previous life, it seems Golov will automatically reward equipment based on the player's class. Alchemist is a magic class, so two of the attributes given by these boots increase magicka and magic attack, while stamina is used to increase health, and agility is a general attribute that all boots increase.

In general, the properties of this pair of boots are much better than the Ice Fox Boots that were exchanged for points. Xia Li immediately exchanged the old ones for the new ones, and then put the Ice Fox Boots on the trading center at a low price.

The new mission will not be released until the second day of the celebration, so there is still most of the day left. Xia Li took out the calendar and took a look. Well, she had forgotten that today is Wednesday, and the new map of the ruined city will be opened soon.

Ever since she took third place in the Ite Ice Land, she hadn't entered the Ruins City again. Her 120 points, which were once barely acceptable, had now been pushed to who knows how many pages back. Thinking about this, Xia Li opened the guild channel and shouted, "Ruins City at 12 o'clock, add me if you want to come."

However, a minute later, the entire guild was silent and no one responded to her.

Xia Li looked at the empty channel awkwardly and added: [Ruins City at 12 o'clock, add me if you want to come, there are still 30 minutes to open the map]

It seemed like someone finally couldn't stand it anymore, and Ice Cream replied to her: [Sister Lihua, I'm doing my professional mission for Fakula, so I can't make it back for the time being...]

Professional tasks, Xia Li thought about it, yes, Fakula has a lot of professional tasks, if you complete them well, you can get a skill book, which will be very useful for Ice Cream, whose priest skills are not very rich at this stage, so she replied with a [OK] in the channel.

After a few seconds, Yuese replied: "A-Li, Lingdu and I are fishing in Emerald Lake. We're still two species short."

Fishing...Okay, Xia Li also expressed her understanding. Fisherman is one of the professions in life. The fish caught can be sold to cooking NPCs or cooking players in exchange for gold coins and experience points. It is a relatively casual way to play.

Luo Pan then replied: [I'm in Spires of Arak, farming monsters. I've recently used up all my experience points upgrading my skills. You know what I'm doing, Master.]

Okay, she understands, she understands everything. Baili Xi and Qingzhengyu are not online yet, and the remaining main players are all busy with their own tasks. Well, she should just form a wild team.

The entrance to the Ruined City mission was still crowded, and at a glance, the densely packed IDs made it impossible to make out. Xia Li was too lazy to look through them one by one, so she simply found the NPC, entered the teammate level requirements, and clicked auto-match.

Three seconds later, she received a message.

[You have been matched with the Beishan Wolf team]

Beishan Wolf? A familiar name...

Xia Li looked up at the sky. Oh, now I remember. Isn't this Bei Shan Lang, the president of Bei Ming You Yu? The most pathetic president in history, the one who was not only cheated on by his girlfriend, but also ultimately defrauded of his money and his life by her and her mistress?
