Chapter 117
It's too late.
The moment the words fell, an extremely large ball of light quickly took shape in the dark sky, and then fell to the ground in the blink of an eye, exploding with a bang!
The undead within seven or eight meters of the light ball disappeared with screams.
Seeing this, the other undead ran towards the town, but the balls of light continued to fall, like falling meteors, blocking their escape route.
"Damn it! Why is this ball of light always staring at us?!"
"Yeah, the battlefield here is so wide, why does it have to fall on our side?"
Several undead warriors were discussing angrily. Xia Mo narrowed his eyes and realized that something was wrong.
Considering that it was a sunny day just now, but suddenly it was covered with dark clouds, and these dark clouds did not go anywhere else, but just surrounded the surrounding area of the town. Obviously, someone in the opposite camp was up to something.
Xia Mo immediately sneaked into the main force. Taking advantage of the chaotic situation on the battlefield, she sneaked into a bush closer to the enemy camp without being noticed.
Her eyes quickly swept across and soon locked onto a person - a male priest wearing a black cloak.
Black outfits are generally synonymous with "darkness" in games.
In addition to his actions of holding the priest's staff and chanting among the tribe, Xia Mo confirmed that the dark clouds and thunder were summoned by him, and the light balls that fell accurately among the undead must also be from his hand.
Kill him! Kill him and you can save the undead!
Xia Mo gritted his teeth and jumped out of the bushes. He swung the weapon in his hand forward and blasted a barrage of skills at the male priest!
Is it done?
Xia Mo stared at the target, his heart beating fast.
However, the special effects quickly dissipated, and the male priest was still standing there. What was even more incredible was that the health bar above his head did not drop at all!
how so?
She could even kill a giant skeleton monster that was 40 levels higher than her, so how could she not be able to deal with a humanoid priest?
Xia Mo didn't believe it. After dodging the attacks from others, she took turns throwing several big skills. This time, she clearly saw something flash beside the male priest.
Protective cover!
When not being attacked, the protective shield appears transparent, so she couldn't see it with the naked eye. But once attacked, the protective shield would flash a few times obviously and then block the attack.
It's this thing that blocked her skills!
Xia Mo clenched his weapon tightly. At this moment, he felt as if he had been bitten by a dog and couldn't fight back.
The male priest in the protective shield obviously saw her helplessness, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, while he continued to wave the priest's staff in his hand.
He summoned another layer of dark clouds from afar. On the battlefield behind him, the screams of the undead came one after another. Xia Mo frowned, feeling so angry that his teeth were itching. He decided to fight him today!
Comet storm, star-speckled, normal attacks, starquake, starburst, star annihilation... whatever she had, she threw! She didn't believe this protective shield could last forever!
Even the most perfect props have a lifespan, especially life-saving ones. There is no possibility of permanent use, and there is definitely an upper limit to their use.
For example, after being attacked a certain number of times, the durability will drop to 0, or after absorbing a certain amount of damage, the item will break and become scrapped.
She has plenty of mana now and can afford to use it. It depends on whether the male priest's protective shield can withstand her fierce attack.
Speeding up, Xia Mo began to attack the male priest frantically! All his skills connected seamlessly, without even a half-second pause in between. The skills were smashed so densely that soon, the male priest's expression began to crack slightly.
As if realizing that the protective shield was about to collapse, he was forced to look away and shift his focus from the battlefield to repairing the shield.
How could Xia Mo give him this opportunity? He circled around and bombarded them twice more.
With a crack, the protective shield shattered. The male priest stepped back in fear, but it was no use being frightened. Xia Mo raised his hand and brought it down again. Boom! A critical hit!
The male priest fell to the ground without even a cry for help.
It's done. Xia Mo felt relieved and turned around to go back to support the remaining undead. However, when she turned around, the picture seemed to be accelerated, and her sight was constantly retreating, as if she had been stripped out of this illusion and was no longer watching from the perspective of a party involved, but as a bystander.
Although the male priest fell, the undead still suffered heavy casualties. In the end, they were outnumbered and were successfully captured and defeated by the united tribes.
At the end of the scene, Xia Mo saw the undead turned into captives. Some of them were killed on the spot, while the others were arranged as slaves to be used by the new tribal leader.
Miko, the Lord of the Undead, suffered the most painful punishment.
There were other priests in the tribe who used spells and magic to peel away his soul bit by bit.
Xia Mo is not an undead, so she cannot experience it firsthand, but she thinks that this method is probably no different from skinning among humans.
Miko was dead, his undead body stripped to pieces.
And her idea of reversing history was completely shattered.
The undead race was wiped out, but outside the Astrology Tower, the wheel of history continued to roll forward.
The tribe that occupied the town of the dead was suddenly defeated by humans one day. The humans rebuilt the town, and then went through several wars and plunders until the resources were exhausted and the town was abandoned.
Many years later, the ruins of Cartaya appeared, and there were no more intelligent creatures on this map.
The Astrology Tower, which has stood here from the beginning to the end, is like a witness to history, recording everything that has happened here in the past 600 years.
The picture freezes on the ruins of Cartaya.
My vision shifted, a gentle breeze blew across my face, and a familiar voice echoed in my ears: "Human, thank you for your contribution to our race. This is [Constitution], please accept it."
The translucent hand gently touched her forehead. For a moment, Xia Mo recalled the scene of the first time he carried the disabled woman on his back and held the little boy's hand in the cemetery.
Time is such a cruel thing. It made her meet them 600 years ago, but 600 years later, it made her walk forward alone with her memories of the undead.
[Congratulations, you have received the blessing of Miko, the Lord of the Undead: Permanent Constitution +0.05]
[Successfully participate in the Undead plot, experience +5500, gold +100]
[Receive the pendant [Dead Cross] from Little Tony the Undead]
It turns out that the physical strengthening tasks are not just combat-related, but also plot-related. Xia Mo sighed secretly, thinking that it was indeed good not to have to fight, but she really didn't want to experience this kind of knife-throwing plot again!
Miko was already dead, more than 600 years ago, but now, for the sake of the mission, he was arranged to meet her here. Who could understand this pain that transcends time and space!
"If only you were still alive."
Xia Mo looked at him and sighed regretfully.
In this way, the existing race cards on the continent of Pergas will have one more [Undead].
According to official data, in the distant past, there were more than 50 different races coexisting on the continent of Pergas, and that was also the most lively era on the continent of Pergas.
However, with the struggle for supremacy among races and the changes of the times, some disadvantaged races gradually disappeared in the long river of history, such as the undead race like Miko.
When a race disappears, they will not appear in the existing race cards and will only be introduced in historical materials.
It’s a pity to think about it.
"Of course I'm alive."
Just when Xia Mo was feeling regretful, she suddenly heard him speak.
She suddenly raised her head and looked at him, stunned.
Seeing her surprised expression, Miko smiled and said, "My soul was indeed torn apart, but later a human who claimed to be a star official passed by the Astrology Tower and helped me piece my broken soul back together. He then infused me with the energy of the stars, and I was able to be resurrected."
"I've been waiting for you here, waiting for you to recall the story between us. Now, I've waited for you, Mo Se, you must remember to come back and see me~"
Damn it! She knew clearly that the other party was just an NPC, and that this was a pre-written script, but when Xia Mo heard Mi Ke say it to her seriously, she still couldn't help crying like an old mother!!!
——My dear Miko, I will definitely come home to see you often!
After Miko finished speaking, he waved at her and disappeared from sight just like the Elf Queen and the Witch Grandma before him.
Xia Mo also hurriedly opened the official website to look at the current race card.
As it turned out… there actually was an extra [Undead] card! And it even showed as newly updated!
In other words, the card was activated after she completed this plot-oriented mission?
Xia Mo was a little excited.
It's not just because a card was activated, but also because the deceased undead have returned to the mainland from today.
This brings us back to the old saying: in "Protoss", every move of the player will affect the development of the plot and the position of the NPC.
Some of the impacts are negative. For example, an unknown player triggered the task, which led to the Orcs and Winged People attacking the White Tower City, almost causing the human players to lose a city.
Some of the impacts are relatively positive, like today, because of completing the plot, she directly changed the fate of an entire race.
Even Xia Mo, who has been in "Protoss" for 5 years, could not resist this real sense of participation and was immersed in it.
Taking a deep breath to calm herself, she closed the card and turned her attention back to the newly acquired pendant.
A pendant, also called a necklace, is a type of jewelry.
Speaking of this, Xia Mo found it quite interesting that the [Chain of Perception] she was wearing around her neck was also given to her by the undead, the one who died in the Jacate Cave and later temporarily transformed into an undead assassin, Toynbee.
Stroking the necklace around her neck, Xia Mo couldn't help but smile. She wondered if it was popular among the undead to give necklaces as gifts. Otherwise, how could she have received necklaces from two undead in a row?
It’s a pity that there is only one slot for the necklace, so she can only choose one of the two.
The [Cross] given by Little Tony is of lower quality than the [Chain of Perception], only second-level silver, and its attributes are much worse than the latter, but the problem is that the former comes with a particularly good special attribute - the Mark of the Undead.
[Mark of the Dead: Active, can randomly mark 1-3 enemy monsters for your own use]
An incredible attribute that can convert the enemy's combat power into one's own. Among the eight professions, only warlocks and hunters have this kind of skill. If other professions want to learn it, they can only keep looking for it in the skill scrolls or skill drawings that are being sold.
Moreover, even if she finds it, she may not be able to afford it, so she has saved a lot of money by getting such an amazing pendant.
However, she cannot wear this attribute now because her forging skills are not high enough. She has to wait until she reaches a certain level before she can remove the attribute and install it on other equipment.
She now has two entries waiting to be installed, so she has to speed up the forging process.
After completing two physical fitness tasks, Xia Mo gained a total of 0.05+0.05=0.1 physical fitness points. He glanced at the attribute panel and saw that the current [Physical Fitness] column had increased from 7.55 to 7.65.
Compared with all players in the server, it is already quite high, but it still falls short of the requirements I set for myself.
After calmly retracting the panel, Xia Mo returned to the Astrology Tower in this era and chatted with his mentor Quinn for a few words. He found that no tasks were triggered, so he left decisively and returned to the royal city to complete his daily tasks.
Three days ago, her position in the library was promoted. Now at level 2, she can receive a salary of 200 gold from the library every week, which is a full 150 gold higher than when she was at level 1.
In order to get a salary increase, she has been working extra hard on her tasks these days. Of course, this action has also helped her gain a lot of favor with the NPC curator.
Then a hidden benefit was triggered.
[The director is very fond of you and has granted you one day of paid leave per week. Please confirm.]
Xia Mo's eyes lit up on the spot!
Now that single-day weekends are here, is the benefit of double-day weekends far away?
