Chapter 0006: You can’t just set a flag casually



The gap between the Nephalem and ordinary people was immediately apparent. Captain Rumford needed several swords to injure the zombies, but they didn't even survive a single round under the meteor hammer of the Crusader girl. Fang Zheng only saw her raise the meteor hammer and swing it forward, and those zombies were smashed away like fallen leaves swept by the autumn wind. It couldn't be easier!

If it was before, then seeing the same scene as in the game, Fang Zheng would just curl his lips and not take it too seriously. But after experiencing the difficulty of these living dead, Fang Zheng finally had a direct feeling about the perverted existence of Nephalem.

Even if Fang Zheng defeated these zombies, it was entirely due to the power of the Holy Light from the Crusaders. But this Nephalem relied entirely on his own strength. With one blow from the hammer, those unlucky zombies with bad luck were completely destroyed, while those with good luck were directly released. Fang Zheng was amazed at what he saw. Now he finally had a direct understanding of Nephalem's power.

Wait... why am I just watching this? I have a mission to do!

After watching the Crusaders in front of him sweep away those zombies again, Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment. Then he remembered that he didn't come here to watch the fun!

Frostmourne is still hungry!

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng did not hesitate, and rushed forward with the weapon in his hand tightly grasped.

Compared to the "teaching level" in the game, Fang Zheng and his companions encountered more zombies. In addition to the first wave of zombies that crawled out from underground, several waves of zombies attacked one after another. Their number was increasing, so much so that Fang Zheng and the Crusader girl could not resist them together. The militia suffered heavy casualties. Except for Captain Rumford who was still trying to hold on, the other militias were either dead or injured, and it seemed that they would not live long.

This is not right!

After chopping down another zombie, Fang Zheng took a breath. He looked up and saw that except for the fire at the gate of Tristram Town, the surroundings were shrouded in darkness. He could only hear the roars of the zombies and the occasional flash of light.

“Haaaa…haaaa…this is damn…this is too much.”

Holding Frostmourne in his hand, Fang Zheng stared at the zombies that staggered out of the darkness, and he couldn't help but gasp. He couldn't remember how many zombies he had killed. He only remembered that when he chopped down one, two more appeared. When he chopped down two, four more appeared. They were endless, as if he could never kill them all.

Is this the real dark world...?

It was only at this moment that Fang Zheng felt a little bit of fear. When playing games, the only feeling he had was that the constant swipes were annoying. The most he could say was that he had some doubts about why humans were so miserable in the dark world. But now, Fang Zheng finally understood that games were different from reality.

There is a reason why humans in the dark world are almost driven to extinction.

“Drink—!”

Looking at the undead staggering towards him, Fang Zheng tightly grasped Frostmourne, roared and chopped forward, and with a flash of holy light, the undead was instantly split in two from the waist and fell to the ground. But what Fang Zheng didn't expect was that at the moment the undead fell to the ground, its upper body suddenly jumped, and then its two hands quickly crawled on the ground and grabbed him!

"Depend on!!"

Seeing this sudden scene, Fang Zheng was also shocked. He almost instinctively raised Frostmourne and stabbed it downwards. The sharp blade pierced through the body of the living dead, and then saw mist of souls emerging from the living dead and then being sucked into the blade of Frostmourne. Then the trembling body of the living dead seemed to have lost its energy supply and became motionless.

"235..."

Fang Zheng took a look at the soul power value in the system prompt and took a breath. Although this kind of grinding was not what he wanted, no matter what, Frostmourne's task of absorbing souls now seemed to be possible. The dark world lacked everything else, but monsters. And Fang Zheng believed that Frostmourne must also like these evil souls very much.

“Ugh—!!”

At the same time, a strange sound suddenly came from the dense forest in the distance. It sounded like a woman crying, or like the sound of a drunk person vomiting. When they heard this sound, Rumford and the Crusader girl's faces changed instantly.

Corpse mother!

"Why can't we kill all these damn things?"

Fang Zheng also realized that the Corpse Mother was a monster transformed from the Queen's maid. The biggest feature of this monster was that it would create more zombies. Fang Zheng didn't know the exact principle, but he knew that the process of the Corpse Mother creating zombies was vomiting, and then the zombies would crawl out of that puddle... Wow, just thinking about it makes people feel nauseous.

"The Corpse Mother must be killed!"

"I know!"

Hearing Captain Rumford's voice, Fang Zheng responded without even turning his head, then he held Frostmourne tightly and rushed into the dense forest.

The reason why Fang Zheng worked so hard was not just to resolve the threat, but because at the moment Captain Rumford spoke, Fang Zheng also received a prompt from the system.

[Scene Mission Trigger: Guardian 2]

[You have detected the source of evil and found its traces. What you need to do next is to use the sharp blade in your hand to end it all (destroy the Corpse Mother, Dimension Points +1)]

However, Fang Zheng was fast, and the Crusader was not slow either. The moment Fang Zheng stepped into the dense forest, he saw a flash of golden light on the Crusader not far from him. Then Fang Zheng looked at the Crusader in surprise as he rushed towards the depths of the dense forest like a cannonball.

"boom--!!"

The Crusader shining with golden light was like a meteor that streaked through the darkness. Everything along the way was crushed to pieces by the powerful impact force. Then Fang Zheng saw a figure appear in front of the Crusader. Then the Crusader raised the shield in his hand without hesitation and smashed it hard on the opponent's face.

“Bang!!”

The unfortunate corpse mother was immediately smashed and flew backwards, but the Crusaders were unable to pursue her because several living dead had already appeared in front of her, blocking the Crusaders' path.

Good opportunity!

Seeing the Crusaders being stopped, Fang Zheng was relieved. If the Crusaders had smashed the Corpse Mother's head with their Star Hammer, then his mission would have failed. Now that the Crusaders were stopped, although there was only a little time, it was enough for Fang Zheng!

Well done!

While secretly giving a thumbs up to the Corpse Mother in his heart, Fang Zheng held Frostmourne and ran along the road opened by the Crusaders into the depths of the dense forest. Soon, he saw the unfortunate Corpse Mother. At this moment, she was crawling on the ground, and it seemed that she couldn't even stand up.

Good opportunity!

Seeing this scene, Fang Zheng's eyes lit up. He glanced at the side and saw that the Crusader was being entangled by the living dead and could not get out of the way for the time being. As long as he could catch up, then Fang Zheng would definitely take the head!

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng rushed forward without hesitation. He did not have the powerful charging skills of the Crusaders, but fortunately the Corpse Mother was knocked into an open space in the dense forest. Therefore, Fang Zheng rushed out of the bushes in a short time, and then he raised Frostmourne in his hand and swung it hard at the Corpse Mother!

Crusader Strike!

At the moment when Fang Zheng swung his sword, the corpse mother who was lying on the ground suddenly raised her head, looked at Fang Zheng and opened her mouth. Then, accompanied by a "uh" sound, Fang Zheng saw a pile of filth mixed with a foul smell coming towards him!

Oh my god!

Seeing this, Fang Zheng was shocked. He cancelled the skill without hesitation and rolled to the side. With a light "pop" sound, the pile of filth hit the ground not far from Fang Zheng. With the help of the weak light, Fang Zheng could even see the dark green, expanding bubbles on it, and even the ground around it began to emit white smoke and slowly sag downwards. It can be imagined that if you are sprayed by this thing, you will definitely not end up well.

Still want to trick me?

Fang Zheng was also furious. You, a corpse mother who was beaten half to death by the Crusaders, actually wanted to trick me? Do you think I'm easy to bully?

He picked up Frostmourne and looked at the corpse mother in front of him again. The corpse mother also glared at him fiercely, and when she saw Fang Zheng looking at her, she opened her mouth and pretended to scream.

“——!”

But this time, before she could even scream, Fang Zheng stabbed her in the mouth with a sword.

Crusader Strike!

Holy light burst out instantly. Fang Zheng saw the head of the corpse mother in front of him begin to crack. Cracks appeared on the corpse mother's skin, and then dazzling holy light shot out from the cracks, becoming brighter and brighter. Then, with a "bang", the corpse mother's body suddenly exploded, and then turned into ashes in the white sacred fire.

Then at the same time, the system prompt sound appeared in Fang Zheng's ears again, and then lines of information appeared in front of Fang Zheng.

[Scenario Mission "Guardian" Progress 2 Completed]

[User gets Dimension Point +1]

[Gain 70 points of soul power]

[Crusader Strike skill proficiency increased to C level]

[Crusader Strike upgraded to range skill]

"really……"

Seeing this line of information, Fang Zheng rolled his eyes, and then he opened his skill bar again, and as expected, he saw that one-fifth of the progress bar under the skill [Crusader Strike] had turned orange. Fang Zheng was speechless at this moment. He had already made a setting in the system that as the proficiency increased, the skills themselves would gradually become stronger. This was naturally to attract newbies and big guys and make them spend money. After all, Dimension Points are something that you either save or spend money on. Although the power will increase with the improvement of skill proficiency, for ordinary people, Dimension Points are definitely not enough, and for big guys who spend money... then it's just a matter of buying, buying, and buying.

This is the usual shameless face of mobile games. Fang Zheng didn't expect that he would become a victim. Is it true that you will eventually encounter ghosts when you go too far?

Fortunately, this mission is relatively simple. Just by killing a corpse mother, you can earn some dimensional points. If future missions are so simple, then it will be even more...

"bite."

However, before Fang Zheng could finish his sigh, the system prompt sounded again in his ears, and then another line of information appeared in front of Fang Zheng.

[Scene Mission Trigger: Guardian Three]

[Looking at the corpse in front of you, you deeply realize that the darkness in front of you is not as easy as you imagined. You feel that the irreversible wheel of fate is rolling in, and all you can do is to try your best to change it all (change the predetermined fate, complete the task to get a random reward, dimensional points +3, the task failure will force the task world to be locked, countdown 48:00)]

“…”

Seeing this line of task prompt, Fang Zheng was completely speechless. He only had one sentence in his mind.

It turns out that you can’t just set flags casually!
