But the problem is that the team is currently more than 150 meters away from these wild boar zombies and has not yet entered their perception range.
According to normal people's thinking, they must keep quiet and go around quietly. It is best not to engage in a battle with these low-level undead who have no wisdom or thinking.
After all, zombie boars are not as easy to deal with as zombie humans and skeletons.
With a weight of one to two hundred or even two to three hundred kilograms, a thick layer of tough fur on the body, as well as rotten flesh, cysts and unknown black and red insects that may carry deadly plagues, it is obviously difficult to deal with from any angle.
Especially the one in the lead, which looked a bit like a ferocious wild boar mutated by magical energy. It was so huge that it looked just like a sturdy bull, with two protruding fangs as sharp as bull horns.
If it is accidentally pushed up, even steel armor will inevitably be dented.
Unfortunately, the sorceress Caroline's shrill scream made the "avoid combat" option disappear.
The wild boar zombie, which was wandering aimlessly, immediately turned around after hearing the sound and stared at the team's location with its two pale eyes.
"Well - I think we're in trouble..."
Wu Sheng held his forehead and couldn't help sighing.
Although he had anticipated that bringing this somewhat timid girl along might cause some trouble, he never expected that the trouble would come so quickly and so suddenly, leaving him completely unprepared.
In contrast, Jack's reaction was quite straightforward. He threw the backpack behind him to the ground, quickly raised his war hammer and shield, and shouted, "Don't panic! It's just a pile of rotting corpses! There's nothing to be afraid of! Everyone, get ready to fight!"
Before he finished speaking!
He then raised the flame-like holy emblem in his hand and began to pray to the God of Phoenix. Immediately afterwards, a ray of golden light fell on everyone around him.
In just a few seconds, the team, which was originally a little panicked because they were about to fight a supernatural creature for the first time, quickly calmed down.
Even the sorceress who had just been frightened and let out a shrill scream returned to normal after she came to her senses.
First-level spell [Blessing]! This is the most frequently used spell by low-level priests in small-group battles. It is also the best spell for group blessing and gain when the professional level is not high.
It not only gives people the courage to fight fear, but also fills the body with strength.
Especially in a sudden encounter like the one now that caused teammates to panic, a [Blessing] could immediately calm them down and enable them to perform beyond their normal capabilities.
Just look at the two warriors who have already raised their shields and held their guns, and you will know that they are at least mentally prepared to fight back.
The thief climbed up to the treetop as quickly as possible and pulled the string of the powerful crossbow in his hand, which had to be wound up with a winch.
Although on the continent of Faerun, most thieves are functional professions, their main functions are to sneak around, open locks, pick pockets, inquire about information, and find, set up and dismantle various traps.
Only when they are absolutely sure will they sneak up behind the target and launch a sneak attack, killing the enemy by inflicting fatal injuries to vital parts.
This is why most thieves who pursue strong personal strength will work as warriors, rangers, assassins and other various professions like Entreri.
Because without these part-time jobs, it is impossible to have strong frontal combat capabilities by simply improving the thief's level.
But players are obviously not subject to this restriction.
To be precise, the relevant professional training they received on Earth and the various skills they mastered will not be reflected in their professional level.
This means that each of these carefully selected elites possesses one or two things that can be called "unique skills".
Just as Jack and two other warriors formed a shield wall with an inclined surface, ready to take the first wave of attack from the zombie boars, the thief in the treetop finally pulled the trigger.
Whoosh! With the sound of the arrow piercing the air, an arrow that had obviously been modified flew at an extremely fast speed towards the zombie boar group that had already started charging.
But incredibly, the arrow did not hit any of the wild boars, but went straight down into the ground.
Just when Jack and others thought that their thief teammate was too nervous and missed the target, the end of the steel crossbow arrow inserted into the ground suddenly shot out a sharp blade with a cold glow in the opposite direction.
As luck would have it, the next second the wild boar in the front stepped over the sharp blade.
As expected, the sharp end directly cut a wound as deep as a finger on the wild boar's bulging fat belly, and the smelly, rotten intestines and other internal organs instantly flowed all over the ground.
Although undead creatures such as zombies have no pain nerves and would not feel anything special about having their intestines ripped open, the long string of intestines that had become extremely tough under the erosion of negative energy got entangled in the arrow the moment it fell.
As a result, the wild boar had not run two steps before its intestines dragged the arrow high up and fell down, and finally got stuck on the branch of a tree, creating a sudden backward pulling force, causing its limbs, which were not particularly coordinated to begin with, to trip over each other.
Before anyone could react to what was happening, this large wild boar zombie, which definitely weighed more than a ton, rolled over and slammed into a nearby tree with a bang.
This was a serious incident as it directly blocked the path of the wild boars behind it.
Since low-level undead creatures have little intelligence, and wild boars cannot be stopped once they start charging, more than a dozen wild boar zombies were tripped one after another, and fell all over the ground like a scene of a serial rear-end collision.
“It's simply amazing!”
Wu Sheng was completely amazed by the archery skills of his fellow thief, his face full of shock and disbelief.
Because this arrow not only accurately calculated the speed and direction of the wild boar's charge in a very short time in advance, but also made full use of the wild boar's amazing weight and great inertia when charging at full speed.
As a ranger who also used long-range weapons, he might be able to use his innate talent for aiming and shooting to shoot arrows into the wild boar's eyes, but it was absolutely impossible for him to replicate the scene just now.
Not only Wu Sheng, but everyone else in the team also showed similar expressions.
There was no other reason, the effect of this arrow was simply too exaggerated.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed that such an outrageous thing could exist in the world.
"Um... don't get me wrong, everything you just saw was actually a coincidence. At first, I just wanted to use the modified crossbow to cut off one of the wild boar's legs and slow down its forward movement. I didn't expect the series of reactions that would follow."
The thief himself quickly recovered from his brief shock, scratched his head with an embarrassed look on his face, and explained.
Although it felt really good inside to be stared at in this way, he was very clear that this situation, which was completely caused by luck and coincidence, would never be successfully replicated.
Instead of letting other team members have unrealistic fantasies and expectations of themselves, it is better to tell the truth directly.
"Is it really just luck?" A hint of doubt flashed in Jack's eyes.
The thief smiled bitterly and nodded: "It's really just luck. Otherwise, if I really had this ability, why would I have to climb up to the top of the tree to hide?"
"Well, that's true. But you did a great job with this arrow."
As Jack spoke, he rushed forward side by side with the other two warriors and beat the wild boar lying on the ground with a beating.
Needless to say, the latter, who was holding a sharp spear, just stabbed randomly from a distance.
As the saying goes, an inch longer, an inch stronger.
Long-range piercing weapons such as spears and lances are originally known as the "king of weapons". In real combat, they are more practical than short weapons such as swords, axes, and hammers.
Many times, just a flat stab is enough to make it difficult for people to parry or get close.
In contrast, swords and knives require years of training, guidance from famous teachers, and accumulation of practical experience.
Heavy weapons such as axes and hammers have very high requirements on the user's strength and endurance.
Therefore, unless there are extreme players like Jack who stacks the strength attribute to 20 points, many players will often carry a long-handled weapon with them in addition to a short weapon.
At this moment, the two spears played an extremely important role, and they killed four wild boar zombies before they could get up.
There were four more whose heads were smashed one after another by Jack's hammer.
A hammer weighing thirty kilograms would be extremely terrifying for any living creature to be accidentally hit by, not to mention swinging it and smashing it down hard.
Just look at the deeply sunken skulls of the dead wild boar zombies and the blood plasma that splashes when they are smashed down, and you will know how amazing the destructive power of this thing is in close combat.
Fortunately, Jack was wearing a fully enclosed helmet, so others could not see his bloodthirsty, ferocious and ugly face when he was angry, otherwise he would have had nightmares for a month.
But the eight were obviously not all the wild boar zombies. The remaining few quickly struggled to get up from the ground and rushed towards the player closest to them at an extremely fast speed.
"careful!"
Wu Sheng hurriedly reminded one of the soldiers who did not notice behind him, and at the same time quickly pulled out an arrow from his quiver and shot it out with his innate unique feeling.
Whoosh! Before the former could react, he saw the sharp arrow graze his cheek and fly past the wild boar zombie's eyes at an indescribable angle.
The ferocious momentum of this giant weighing more than 250 kilograms suddenly stopped, and then it deviated from its original direction uncontrollably and hit the tree trunk next to it with a dull sound.
The soldier who was nearly killed or crippled by the wild boar zombie broke out in a cold sweat when he saw this scene. He quickly turned around and said gratefully, "Thanks, buddy. I owe you a favor."
"You are welcome."
Wu Sheng responded casually and quickly drew his bow to shoot at another wild boar zombie.
With his extremely accurate sniping and the hammer blows from the fierce priest Jack, the remaining wild boar zombies were quickly knocked to the ground.
The extremely realistic battle and the extremely dangerous process caused several veterans who had been to the battlefield to secrete large amounts of adrenaline. Instead of the fear that normal people would have in their eyes, their eyes revealed a light of excitement and stimulation.
There is no doubt that this is the life they expect, wandering between life and death every day and enjoying the excitement of dancing with death.
As for the warlock Caroline who accidentally triggered this unexpected encounter, she just watched the show the whole time and failed to perform even a zero-ring trick.
Because for a girl of her age, it all happened too suddenly, too excitingly, and ended too quickly, and she was never able to recover from the panic and shock.
After sitting on the ground and resting for about five minutes, Jack couldn't help but open the character panel and took a look. He found that he had accumulated enough experience points and directly upgraded from LV10 to LV15 (equivalent to one and a half levels of real level). All basic attributes were also strengthened. He immediately said in surprise: "Huh? I actually upgraded five levels in a row! In addition to learning and training, killing monsters in battle is also a way to quickly upgrade?"
"Ha! I also leveled up two levels!"
"I got promoted to a higher level!"
"I leveled up three times!"
"No wonder I suddenly felt that my strength had become a little stronger just now."
"Yeah! My reaction speed is the same."
…
Following Jack's reminder, everyone else opened their character panels to check their own situations, and excitedly talked about the changes brought about by the increase in attributes.
Since Zuo Si asked the main brain Isadora to split the real level of LV1 into the virtual level of LV10, starting from the virtual level LV2, the values of the players' attributes and abilities are completely different from the real situation.
Even though you can increase the main attribute of your profession by one point each time you upgrade it, in fact you need a total of 40 points to be equivalent to one point of your actual level.
Just as the team members were discussing how this "kill monsters and level up" mechanism actually worked and why Jack had the highest level increase while the others had relatively low levels, Caroline raised her hand and interrupted in a slightly guilty tone.
"I...my professional level has not been improved."
"Um?"
Wu Sheng keenly grasped the information contained in this sentence and immediately exclaimed: "Damn it! I think I understand what's going on.
Caroline didn't contribute or participate in the battle just now, so she was not allocated any experience points.
We were probably automatically assigned some experience points based on each person's contribution and role in the battle, and our professional levels were naturally upgraded.
In other words, if we want to gain more power, we must kill stronger enemies and monsters, and we must not be lazy or slack off."
"I see! I just cast a spell on everyone, and killed almost half of the undead creatures myself, so I gained the most experience points. Becoming stronger through constant fighting and killing? Hahahaha! This is really to my taste!" Jack clenched his fists and laughed happily.
You know, the battle with the wild boar just now, where he hammered into the flesh and broke the bones, made his blood boil, and he vented all the killing desire that had accumulated during this period of time.
If this speculation of "killing monsters to level up" and "distributing experience points based on contribution and role" is correct, then he is confident that he can upgrade his career level before other players and always remain in the top first tier.
Compared with this huge advantage, three points of charisma and five points of intelligence are not a problem at all.
At worst, I can just weld an iron mask to my face and never take it off.
Wu Sheng couldn't help but smile and sighed, "Yes! It seems that we have to change our previous strategy of avoiding battles as much as possible. Instead, we should try our best to find monsters and kill them all to gain experience points."
"I agree! Although the mission is important, leveling up is equally important."
The thief subconsciously licked his lips with his tongue, his face full of ferocious and bloodthirsty expression.
Needless to say, he didn't plan to continue to act in a wretched manner, but was ready to fight to the death.
After all, if you don’t try your best, you won’t get more experience points, which means you will soon be left behind by the elite players in the first tier in terms of level.
After a brief repair and drinking the plague neutralizing potion, the group soon set out again.
But unlike their previous cautious advance, this time they kept searching in the dense forest like hungry wolves.
Once you find something that moves, shoot an arrow without thinking twice.
Many beasts and birds that survived the magical plague were killed inexplicably.
Of course, most of those killed were the low-level undead who had been resurrected from the dead.
Among them, the four zombies hiding in the dark and suddenly jumping out to attack posed a considerable threat to this low-level adventure team.
A soldier was scratched on the inside of his arm where there was no armor. It looked bloody and horrible.
Fortunately, he was caught instead of bitten, otherwise there is a high probability that he would be infected with "Ghoul Fever".
But even so, the subsequent whole-body paralysis almost cost the soldier his life.
The sorceress was nearly knocked down and dragged alive into the bushes that were more than half a person's height and dismembered.
When the battle was over, Jack immediately began to perform his duties as a priest, using the Zero Ring [Heal Minor Injuries] to stop the bleeding of his injured teammates.
As for why I don't use the advanced first-level spell [Cure Light Wounds]...
Of course it’s because I didn’t even remember it!
From the very beginning, he positioned himself not as a priest in the traditional sense who healed illnesses and saved lives, but as a powerful warrior who could use divine magic.
Excluding the [Blessing] that had already been used, I remember that this guy's other divine spell was [Divine Grace] which was used to enhance melee lethality, and it had already been used in the battle.
The domain magic is usually [Burning Hands] from the fire domain, or [Enlightenment Aura] from the purification domain.
The former is known without asking, it is a rare large-scale group damage in the first-ring energy magic.
The latter gathers a ball of flashing energy in his hands and then releases it to directly strike the enemy. Its single-target damage power is quite astonishing, not inferior to some second-ring spells and divine arts.
Therefore, Jack's fighting style is very simple and crude. He often strengthens himself and his teammates while swinging his hammer, releasing damaging spells, and rushing forward to finish the job.
Looking at his exhausted companions and the sorceress Caroline who had used up all her spell slots, Wu Sheng immediately suggested, "Let's stop today's exploration. I think we'd better find a relatively safe place to log off and rest for the night, and then continue tomorrow morning."
"As you say."
Jack had just used up all his magic for the day, so he nodded and agreed.
He finally had the chance to leave the floating city and go outside to kill monsters and level up, and he didn't want his teammates to die too early.
Even if I have to die, I want to be the last one to die among this group of elite players.
However, in a place where undead creatures roam everywhere, it is obviously not easy to find a relatively safe place to spend the night.
Even as a ranger who had mastered a lot of knowledge and skills about survival in the wild, it took Wu Sheng more than 40 minutes before he finally found a tree hole more than 400 meters away from a forest stream.
From the withered leaves on the ground and the dry feces with a slight odor, he immediately recognized that this was the place where a bear hibernated.
But fortunately, it is summer now, and the footprints on the ground are so blurred that they cannot be seen. The original owner of the cave will definitely not come back in the short term.
Therefore, the team decided to camp here after discussion.
But just as everyone was about to sit down and eat some bread, dried meat and pickles for dinner, they suddenly heard a deafening roar coming from somewhere nearby.
Wu Sheng was the most alert. He immediately dropped his food, grabbed his bow and arrow, and was the first to run out of the tree hole.
The second roar followed as expected.
At this time, Jack also ran out and asked in a very nervous tone: "What on earth is that sound? Is there a scary monster nearby?"
Wu Sheng shook his head with a serious expression: "I don't know! The sound should come from the bottom of the stream. But I think we'd better go and take a look."
"Then let's go. Anyway, after hearing this kind of roar, I don't think anyone would dare to log off and rest."
After that, Jack glanced at the others with a questioning look.
As expected, even Caroline, who was the most timid and had little combat experience, followed.
In fact, although the girl did not perform well at the beginning and was often confused in battle.
But as she experienced herself more and more battles, by the last battle she was not only able to ignore the hideous and terrifying zombies, but also forced to concentrate on casting spells and successfully released the [Magic Missile], and she also summoned an extremely ferocious badger through the [Level 1 Summoning Monster Spell], turning the situation around when she was attacked in the worst situation.
After all, the biggest advantage of players is that they will not really die, and they have countless opportunities to make mistakes and try again.
Even an ordinary person without any combat experience can quickly grow into a skilled fighter or spellcaster after experiencing it a few times.
Jack has always been watching Caroline's growth, and he also realizes the amazing role that a spellcaster can play at critical moments.
Apart from anything else, the badger created by the [Level 1 Summoning Monster Technique] that could distract the enemy in battle allowed him to successfully break free from the entanglement of the ghoul, and then smashed this intelligent and insidious undead creature into a meat patty with a hammer.
As for the magic missiles with built-in tracking function, they can ignore all obstructions and obstacles and directly hit the target, causing considerable damage.
Just as Jack was considering whether to invite Caroline to join the team, the team finally came to the edge of a cliff along the stream.
Looking down along the splashing stream, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
In a huge circular canyon with a radius of several thousand or even tens of thousands of meters, there stood an extremely large city.
A floating city to be exact!
However, this floating city did not float in the sky above, but was covered with densely green vines, trees and moss. From a distance, it seemed to have merged with the entire forest.
What's even more creepy is that the people living here are not humans, but tens of thousands of undead creatures.
Among them were low-level zombies, skeletons, and ghouls that they had seen before, as well as demons, vengeful spirits, extinguished spirits, bound spirits, face-stealers, soul-cage demons, and grave knights that they had never seen before...
In short, it's so crowded that you can't see the end!
The number is so large that it makes one's scalp tingle.
In addition to the undead creatures formed after the death of humans, there are also a large number of undead creatures formed after the death of animals, as well as various giant undead structures assembled from animal corpses.
Among them, those stitched creatures that look like the Schnazkar stitched giants are hundreds of meters in size, and they exude thick black fog that symbolizes negative energy.
The largest one had five huge and deformed heads, lying in the center of a huge magic circle, continuously releasing terrifying red light from the center of the hollow ribs.
There were also several undead spellcasters around, wearing dirty robes and chanting spells with their hands raised high.
The roar just now came from it.
"Oh my God! This... This is the target we are looking for on this mission! The floating city of Mutahar disappeared from the sky! No wonder we can't see anything from the airship, it actually camouflaged itself perfectly."
Wu Sheng's lips were trembling with excitement.
It's impossible not to be excited! Because the mission clearly states that the first person or team to find it will receive a full 10,000 gold coins reward.
Other participants will receive a reward of at least ten and no more than three hundred gold coins based on their contribution levels.
What does 10,000 gold coins mean to current players? It means that they can buy a large number of scrolls, potions, or at least three or four enchanted weapons and equipment in the magic shop in the floating city!
It also means that more than five thousand "Infinite City" currencies can be exchanged!
Even if the money is divided equally among the whole team, everyone can comfortably enjoy two months of extravagant life, and if they spend frugally, they may be able to survive for half a year to a year.
"Fuck! How many experience points can I get if I kill all these undead creatures? And how high can my job level be raised?"
Jack subconsciously clenched the warhammer in his hand, and he was so excited that he felt as if he could jump down at any time.
But after some struggle, reason finally overcame impulse.
He took a deep breath, gently slapped his cheeks with his palms to force himself to calm down, and then asked several other teammates around him: "What should we do now? Should we try to go down and investigate, or send a signal to the airship first?"
Wu Sheng answered without hesitation: "Of course, send the signal first!
With so many enemies, the few of us would be torn to pieces before we even get close.
If you join forces with other elite players and use airships to bomb from the air, you can reap a lot of experience points.
But I doubt that Captain Boll would agree to do this, which would be no different from suicide."
"Hehe! No matter what, we've made a lot of money this time. Let's go and send a signal quickly, otherwise we'll be doomed if we're discovered by the other party..."
Before the thief could finish his words, several blurry and translucent mists suddenly emerged from the darkness.
Before he could react to what was happening, the mist quickly condensed into angry and distorted human faces, emitting a creepy, shrill scream.
The next second...
All the undead creatures at the bottom of the cliff stopped moving, raised their heads and stared with cold eyes.
In just less than a dozen seconds, the huge number of ghouls, zombies and skeletons quickly climbed along the vines like ants, and the spiritual creatures even took off directly on the spot.
Such a horrifying scene instantly made Wu Sheng shudder. He immediately activated the fireworks wand used to send signals, and then shouted: "Run! Run! Don't stop!"
After hearing this, several other members of the team immediately came to their senses and started running away without saying a word.
In their opinion, their current situation was like stirring up a hornet's nest. They had to inform other players of the news before they died, especially to ensure the safe evacuation of the important airship and Captain Bol.
Otherwise, if such an important NPC died, resulting in a lack of convenient transportation in the future, other players would resent him.
But what Jack and Wu Sheng didn't know was that as players, they were actually the eyes, ears and tentacles extending from the main brain.
Everything they saw, heard, and experienced was no secret at all to the mastermind Isadora.
When the floating city of Mutahar was discovered, the entire top leadership received the news immediately.
Vanessa, who has the highest management authority, immediately assembled the core members of the organization and recalled the three Isadoras who were migrating the population on the other side of the continent.
In just less than two or three minutes, he completed the war mobilization.
Immediately afterwards, the Plantia floating city, which had not moved for a long time, began to control gravity and flew towards the scene of the incident at an extremely fast speed.
The speed was so fast that even the players felt something was wrong.
"Fuck! Is this floating city under our feet moving fast?"
A wizard apprentice stood on top of a high tower, staring in amazement at the clouds outside the window that were drifting away.
"What happened?"
"Could it be that the guys on the airship a few days ago discovered something and are preparing to go to war?"
"War? With whom?"
"Idiot! Of course it's other floating cities. Didn't you read the background setting? Except for us, all other floating cities in this world have been occupied by undead creatures."
"Floating City War? Is it going to be so big right from the start?"
"Damn! This is too exciting!"
"Do those of us who haven't graduated from the academy have a chance to participate in the war? Are we just going to watch the whole thing?"
"I don't know! Let's go to the central tower and ask."
"Together!"
…
After a while, a large number of players rushed to the central tower.
But when they were halfway there, they discovered that the constructs, golems, and skaab creatures, which were rarely seen in normal times, were all geared up like soldiers heading to the battlefield, pouring out from the various closed underground entrances in an endless stream, and their numbers were so numerous that they could not be counted.
The mobile floating island that was originally floating near the city and equipped with a super cannon also had corresponding operators.
Everything ultimately leads to one result: war.
However, the top leaders in the floating city of Plantia no longer have time to pay attention to these players who are temporarily unable to form combat effectiveness. They are now gathered in the conference room, watching the live footage provided by the main brain Isadora.
Soon, Vanessa took the lead and asked, "Have you sent someone to inform Lord Soth?"
"We have sent one. But Lord Soth seems to be exploring another world. He has proactively blocked all outside interference and locked himself in the detection room of the Mage Tower. We cannot contact him for the time being." Tailantier explained helplessly.
"Okay, then this battle is up to us. Immediately give orders to Bol at the front line, and tell him to hold Mutahar's floating city at all costs before we arrive, and never allow him to escape." Vanessa made the decision on the spot.
Although he also knew that relying on only one airship, those pitiful supplies, and just over 140 players who had just obtained professional levels, it was simply a daydream to threaten a floating city.
But now we can only rush and try to buy as much time as possible.
"Boll has received the order. He said he would immediately gather a group of players and fly the airship directly over the canyon to bomb."
The mastermind Isadora quickly transmitted the order through the psychic network under her control.
Vanessa nodded in satisfaction: "Very good! Tyrantil, you will be responsible for operating those super electromagnetic cannons.
As soon as you enter the maximum range, fire a volley at me immediately.
Don't be afraid of consumption, use the most destructive hydrogen-oxygen mixture bombs and incendiary bombs.
Oh, by the way, those jars filled with holy water can also be stuffed in there to give those low-level undead creatures a bath."
"Got it, just leave it to me."
Without a word, Tailantier accepted the task, turned around and quickly disappeared at the end of the stairs around the corner.
In the next few minutes, Vanessa assigned tasks one by one like a calm commander.
The entire floating city quickly entered a level one combat readiness state from a peaceful state.
Players can even see the tops of those towering wizard towers begin to flash dazzling magical halos, followed by layer upon layer of protection covering the floating city.
Especially after the installation of the [Core of Misera] and the introduction of Faerun's magic net, the defense of the floating city of Plantia can be said to have been epically strengthened, and it seems to have become a large-scale magic barrier or even a maze.
Just as the floating city was entering a state of war, Bol, who was far away on the other side, had already begun to control the airship to fly slowly at a low altitude, and hung a rope ladder outside, constantly gathering players according to the positions provided by the main brain Isadora.
After a short while, about sixty people climbed up the ladder.
When they learned that the team led by Wu Sheng and Jack had completed their reconnaissance mission, a howl of grief immediately broke out in the crowd.
It was obvious that they were heartbroken over missing out on the huge bounty of 10,000 gold coins.
However, when he heard that the team had stirred up a hornet's nest and was being hunted by thousands of undead, he immediately became gloating.
When Bol announced that the airship would go directly to the sky above the floating city of Mutahar to carry out a bombing mission, the players immediately danced with excitement.
Even though they knew very well that this was almost a suicide attack, as long as enough undead were killed by dropping bombs and their professional levels were raised fast enough, no one cared whether they died once or not.
Moreover, the floating city also took out some magic items and equipment as rewards, including a secondary magic storage ring, a belt that can increase a certain basic attribute, a +1 flaming sword with a cool appearance, a necklace that can shoot a three-ring fireball every day, a magic wand that can be used ten times to treat minor injuries, and so on.
It can be said that each of them is extremely tempting to penniless players.
All players who participate in this action can obtain a corresponding number of lottery tickets according to their contributions, and determine the ownership of these grand prizes by scratching the lottery tickets.
In addition to the grand prize, there are also some small prizes such as potions, scrolls, fire glue, ordinary enchanted arrows, missile wands, etc., and there are quite a lot of them.
In short, as long as you can win any one of them, you will definitely make money.
As for a life, if it is lost, it is lost. The worst that can happen is that you will drop a level or two or lose some experience points.
In this way, many elite players with rich combat experience moved the bombs in the cargo hold to the semi-enclosed deck while joking with each other.
After a while, the entire deck was filled with stuff.
A human female warrior with a resolute and heroic face was looking forward with a telescope, conveying information to her companions behind her in extremely professional terms.
When she was getting closer to the floating city, she finally saw Wu Sheng, Jack and others being chased by countless ghosts and undead creatures.
At this moment, they not only looked extremely miserable, but almost everyone was covered in blood, and their number also dropped from six to three.
It was not known whether the thief and the other two warriors were dead or had run away, but they disappeared without a trace.
"Hahahaha! Look! These guys are really lucky! They're still alive!"
A bearded dwarf player laughed heartily.
"Want to bet on how many minutes they can hold out?"
Another player nearby who was clearly of mixed orc descent also grinned.
Who allowed them to get the most generous mission rewards before everyone else?
Just as the dwarf player was about to respond, the female player holding the telescope immediately turned around and rolled her eyes in annoyance: "It's already this late, and you're still having fun here. Immediately get the bombardier to prepare holy water! We have to rescue them. Now is not the time to fight among ourselves. One more person means more strength."
"OK! Got it!"
"Holy water! Find the jar of holy water!"
"Bombardiers, ready!"
"put!!!!"
With smooth command, six jars filled with holy water full of positive energy fell straight from the sky.
Since many of the first batch of elite players were "professionals", they made very accurate calculations of height and wind speed.
Without exception, the jars filled with holy water were less than twenty meters from the ground and were shattered by the crossbow arrows that were shot out subsequently, covering a large area like flowers scattered from the sky.
The undead creatures in spirit form screamed in agony when they were drenched in this way.
Some weaker ghosts were purified immediately, and their bodies became more and more transparent until they disappeared completely.
"Fly... airship?! Our airship is coming! Hurry up and catch up!"
Jack's face was filled with excitement at surviving the disaster.
Even though he had already prepared himself mentally to die once, he couldn't help but struggle again when he thought of so many undead in the floating city of Mutahar waiting for him to harvest.
Finally, the hard work paid off and rescue finally arrived.
When the rope ladder lowered by the airship passed by him, he dragged the warlock, who was already fainted from exhaustion, with one hand, and with the other hand he held the ladder tightly and climbed up little by little.
Wu Sheng followed closely behind.
Not long after, the two successfully climbed onto the cabin of the airship. After looking at each other, they immediately burst into unstoppable laughter.
