Chapter 191 (Extra)
Not many people actually know that the boss is an incarnation of the gods.
After all, when the first one appeared, the system only announced it as the "Unnamed Boss", and the players didn't think much of it.
Only the pioneering team that awakened the first clone, as well as Ye Zi and Bai Cai Tou, knew that it was not some nameless being, but a race of gods whose strength could crush the puny humans.
So even though the players on the scene were having a great time playing, several people in the pioneering team were looking worried.
"It's over, this guy can't handle it."
"The magic circle's energy is transferring so quickly, he's almost finished absorbing it!"
"What happens when it's done?"
"Who should I ask if you ask me? It's not a good thing anyway."
"Why!"
Ye Zi's expression was also somewhat solemn. From his perspective, he could see that the red energy bar had reached the shoulders of the God Clan's clone. It was estimated that in another half an hour, the latter would be able to absorb all of it.
What will happen then? He doesn't know.
But what he was sure of was that the clone of the God who had completed the absorption would be more difficult to deal with.
The dialog box shook, and two paragraphs of text came into his view.
[These five coordinates are the locations of the five God Clan clones. There is a magic circle nearby that can provide huge energy to the original body, but it seems inconvenient for the original body to move around, so it can only use the clones that have been ambushed in advance to transmit it for him.]
[However, I still don't know where the real one is. We can only kill these five clones first and cut off the real one's energy source. This way, even if the real one appears, it will not be fully charged.]
How powerful were the Protoss? Xia Mo only briefly recalled the scene of the battle with the Protoss that year.
Spears, shields, flames, ice... Players charged into battle in batches, but were also turned into white light in batches.
My ears were filled with shouts and howls, and these sound waves were like waves, pouring into my brain unstoppably.
The long battle exhausted everyone, and if they were not careful, they would die under the attack of the gods.
Back then, she was a priest and everyone's main support. She upheld her professional beliefs and held up the sky for everyone despite the attacks of the Protoss. However...
My heart started pounding.
Xia Mo opened his eyes and calmed his accelerating heartbeat.
The battle that year had no result, because in the middle and late stages of the battle, she was stabbed to death by Xu Xiaobei, and then reborn.
If she hadn't died that year, would they have won the war between humans and gods?
Xia Mo thought about it carefully and gave the answer - no.
The power of the gods is too strong. According to the background setting given by the game, he defeated the leader of the gods tens of thousands of years ago.
He is a demon, a darkness that destroys the world. Such a powerful boss cannot be shaken at all with the limited power of human players.
So even after being reborn, they still have no chance of winning?
No, yes.
Xia Mo looked into the distance, but the face of the winged angel in the salt cave appeared in his mind.
Back then, no one discovered the angel hanging in the cave, and no one realized that clones of the gods began to appear on the continent of Vazetilan. The players missed clues, lost key information, and were eventually pushed onto the battlefield in a confused manner, becoming cannon fodder under the feet of the gods.
However, don’t forget one thing: no matter how difficult the game boss is, there must be a way to defeat it.
The fact that all the players were unable to defeat the Protoss together can only mean one thing - no one had a killer move that could deal with the Protoss back then, so they had a hard time fighting and were almost wiped out in the end.
Is it possible that this life could be different?
Xia Mo opened his backpack and looked at a shining object in the grid, falling into deep thought.
After getting the coordinates, Ye Zi quickly released the news to the world, along with the concept that "the Boss is the incarnation of the gods."
As soon as the news came out, the continent of Vazetilan was in an uproar.
[Holy crap? These giants are actually clones of the gods?! And there are five of them?!]
[So, a war between humans and gods is about to begin, huh? Hehehe, I'm kind of excited.]
[What's the point of being excited? We couldn't even handle the one in the lake. If the real one shows up, how are we going to defeat it with our limited strength?]
[Ah... then what should I do? ]
"Just do as Guild Leader Ye Xing Qi Hang says. Aren't there still three coordinates? Hurry up and attack. Even if we can only take down one, we can weaken the Protoss's combat power!"
[That makes sense. Let's go! Everyone from the xx Guild, follow me and kill them!]
Ye Zi took a screenshot of the chat in the world and sent it to Xia Mo.
After seeing this, Xia Mo said: [Okay, I will wait for your good news]
She was in the continent of Pergas and couldn't see the chat on Vazetilan's channel, so she could only let Ye Zi convey the message indirectly.
Knowing that he had already sent out the message and mobilized the players, Xia Mo temporarily put his mind at ease and turned his attention back to the present.
The broken-winged angel Sawyer gave her these five coordinates, but could not tell her where the real body was.
Thousands of years of freezing had weakened his insight, and he was unable to penetrate the layers of cover and find any trace of his true self in this vast land.
The task of finding out where the real body is fell on her shoulders.
Unfortunately, the experience from her previous life could not provide any help in the present, because even she did not know where the gods awakened from at that time.
If there are no clues, you can only put it aside for now. If you can't solve a problem, put it aside for a while. Maybe the answer will surface later?
As the sky gradually darkened, Xia Mo pulled out his little black horse and galloped towards Sulu Beach in the east.
More than an hour later, she arrived at the beach.
The ocean-going ship that was purchased earlier was launched, and as the deep blue waters stirred against each other, a ship appeared on the sea.
The hidden mission [Townfolks on the Island] has not been completed yet, so she has to go to the town of Yayaro.
This trip to the sea was very peaceful and there were no attacks from sea monsters. Xia Mo arrived at the small town port unhindered, docked the boat, and headed straight into the town.
She had been here before and was familiar with the roads in the town, so she turned left and right on the cobblestone road and soon entered the center of the town and stood on the outskirts of the small square.
As night fell, the economically backward town of Yayaro had no conditions to use oil lamps, so people had to spontaneously light the resin on the pillars on both sides and use torches to illuminate the roads and squares.
It seemed that some event was being held here today, because Xia Mo saw that the townspeople who were supposed to stay at home after dark actually came out of their houses one by one and gathered around the square.
They moved their feet but did not speak. Only the light of fire danced on their quiet faces, which looked particularly strange in the silent night.
In order not to attract the attention of the townspeople, Xia Mo turned on the fraud props, randomly simulated a passerby, and hid himself in it.
In the circular square, a group of people in red robes suddenly entered with an iron cage.
There was a woman in the cage. Her face was pale and her pupils were dilated. She was obviously terrified by what was happening before her eyes.
However, unlike the woman's frightened expression, the townspeople gathered outside the square all had a look of relief on their faces.
The man in red opened the iron cage and pulled the woman out.
The woman screamed and struggled to break free, but was hit on the back of the head by a spiked mace.
The woman fell silent instantly, her head drooping on the side of her shoulder, blood oozing from the back of her broken head.
Of course it wasn't real blood. After all, this was a game, and it wasn't appropriate to go into too much detail on such bloody scenes. From a distance, Xia Mo could only see a pool of mosaic flowing.
Everyone present seemed to be accustomed to this kind of scene. No one was surprised or afraid around the square, and everyone kept their lips curled up.
The woman was hung on the middle cross, with a stone recess at the base.
The mosaic blood flowed into the groove, and the groove seemed to have its own magnet, slowly leading the blood to the stone plate placed at an angle at the back.
The complex inscriptions on the plate were filled with blood. The stone plate started to work, and several blood-red beams of light shot out from the center. The beams of light were sometimes shallow and sometimes deep, flickering, and finally merged into one beam, piercing the sky.
The deep blue sky was illuminated by red light. Xia Mo stared straight at it and saw a familiar face reflected above the dome.
Gods.
When the people of Yayaro town saw the gods appear, they knelt on the ground devoutly.
Xia Mo followed suit and knelt on the ground, imitating the actions of the person next to him, constantly bowing his head and kissing the ground.
Ugh, that's quite brainwashing.
Just as I was complaining silently, suddenly, the people in red robes made a new move.
They quickly replaced the dead woman, and then took out a new cage from the corner. There was a young girl in the cage. When Xia Mo saw the latter's face, his expression changed instantly.
Miss Dila!
The pharmacist NPC in the novice village of Buluo. She had bought potions from her when she was under a red name.
How did she get caught here?
The tragic death of the first woman made Xia Mo realize that if she did nothing next, Dila would face the same fate.
She had met Dila before, and the latter had helped her stop the people who were trying to arrest her. Just based on this, Xia Mo couldn't just sit back and watch.
So, without anyone noticing, she crawled out of the crowd, slipped into the alley next to her, then took off her disguise, used climbing tools, and quickly climbed to the roof of a pointed-roof building.
Night is always the best time for a sneak attack. Xia Mo hid behind the chimney and estimated the straight-line distance between her and the iron cage.
More than 6 meters.
6 meters is the maximum release range of her two group attack skills [Star Destruction] and [Starry Sky].
It seems that it is useless, so the only option is...
Xia Mo narrowed his eyes, threw the weapon in his hand quickly, the stars suddenly fell, and the square exploded with a bang!
Comet Storm! The maximum range was 8 meters, and she had just attacked at the maximum range.
Fortunately, this wave of explosion did not disappoint her. All the people in red within the range were blown to pieces.
A large number of lives were taken away by this group attack. Xia Mo didn't have time to look at the experience rewards that appeared in front of her. She drank the invisibility potion, flew down from the roof like a swallow, and rushed into the square at a rapid speed.
At this time, the square was in chaos. The townspeople had no fighting ability and were running away in panic. The men in red knew how to fight, and they gathered together immediately after discovering that they were being attacked.
But it's still passive.
They had no idea that Xia Mo had become invisible. Instead, they were waving their weapons around and searching for the enemy in the air.
The advanced invisibility potion only lasts for 15 seconds, but for Xia Mo, it is enough.
At the last second, she appeared in front of the iron cage. When Dilla in the cage saw her, her eyes widened in shock.
"Run to the harbor and get on the largest ship! I'll meet you later."
As he spoke, he pulled the man out of the cage and pushed him towards the port.
"Don't just stand there, run."
Dila realized that Xia Mo was here to save her. Surprise and worry alternately rolled in her eyes, but in the end, it only turned into one sentence: "Be careful!"
She lifted her skirt and ran towards the port.
In order to clear the way for her, Xia Mo threw out Star Destruction and Starry Sky in front of her. The two skills exploded one after another. The freezing of Star Destruction was not triggered, but the speed reduction of Starry Sky took effect.
The men in red who tried to intercept Dila were forced to slow down by 50%. Dila ducked down, slipped under their outstretched arms, and ran seven or eight meters away.
I probably can't catch up.
Xia Mo withdrew her gaze, used a single-target skill to kill the few people in front of her, and then deliberately dragged them towards the residential area behind the square. The people in red were NPCs after all, and their brains were not as active as those of the players. When they saw her trying to run, they all swarmed to catch up with her.
Seeing them entering the criss-crossing cobblestone paths, Xia Mo stopped playing hide-and-seek with them. She took another bottle of invisibility potion and her figure blended into the night. She was like the wind, like an arrow, and like an invincible cheetah.
Once in darkness, no one could find her trace.
There are many things you can do in 15 seconds, including getting rid of the man in red.
When Xia Mo reappeared, her pursuers were no longer behind her.
Boarding the ocean-going ship, she maneuvered it skillfully.
Beep, beep, the engine below the deck started, the turbine at the stern rotated, and the ship's speed was increased to the maximum.
It took only ten seconds from boarding the ship to sailing off, but the small town had been left far behind in the dark night.
On the task panel, [Town Citizens on the Island] shows that her current completion progress is 90%.
