The Imperial City, which was supposed to be in their camp, was instantly possessed by No. 1 and became the Boss's helper.
In addition, No. 1 also split into various strange companions, including rats half the height of a human, and snakes as thick as calves... But without exception, all of them are various creatures that once merged into little Sarah's body.
It was already difficult enough for five people to fight one boss, and now one of them was taken away, and there were four more accomplices. The little frog felt overwhelmed.
Just when I was about to curse Huang Cheng to vent my anger, I heard him call me "Dad". Suddenly...
"Hahahaha! I must record this! If he insults me again, I'll show it to him on loop endlessly, hahaha!"
The little frog laughed quite arrogantly. It was not known whether it was because the Emperor City who was trapped inside was angry or because of the boss's instruction. Anyway, the "Emperor City" swung the sword towards him. The little frog jumped away with a slap on his butt, and his flesh was almost cut off.
"Dad, I hate you."
"Imperial City" chased after the little frog and hacked at him. The little frog tried hard to hold back his laughter and turned back to fight him back from time to time.
As they were pulling each other, the little frog actually took away a lot of the emperor's blood.
Seeing that the two of them were "cooperating" well, Xia Yao curled her lips and simply ignored them, instead directing the King of Kings and the Veteran to kill the split monsters.
They were both quite fast and could easily deal with the split monsters, while he concentrated on dealing with No. 1.
Soon the imperial city was restrained by the little frog, the split monster was destroyed, and only the boss was left in the field again.
It had very little blood left, and Xia Yao was about to go up and give it a fatal blow!
whoosh!
An arrow shot in from outside the tower door!
Want to steal her monster?
dream.
Xia Yao quickly turned her body around, knocked the arrow away with a wind blade, then turned around again and jumped up!
The Soul-Devouring Fan swept out quickly.
-3800!
Critical hit!
Congratulations! You've successfully cleared Plague City (Difficult)
The little frog jumped up in excitement: "Damn it, I knew it! The first kill will definitely belong to us! Long live the boss! Stick with the boss!"
The king of kings and the veteran also breathed a sigh of relief.
"This dungeon was so taxing on both brainpower and physical strength...it's finally over."
"Thanks for leading the team, allowing us to take off!~"
Only Huang Cheng was still standing there stupidly, not reacting for a long time.
It wasn't until the little frog gave him a hard shove that he suddenly came to his senses and saw the system message. Then, his eyes gradually widened. "We passed?! We actually passed! A difficult level 15 dungeon? First kill?! Oh my god, it was so hard! Thank you, big brother, thank you brothers! I'll treat you to dinner later!"
There’s no need to eat, Xia Yao thought.
She would rather eat a bowl of instant noodles quietly at home alone.
But it would be a lie to say I wasn't happy to get the first kill again.
Dear player, you have completed your first kill in Plague City (Difficult). The system will announce this in a world announcement. Would you like to hide your name?
Still select [No]
World Channel:
Congratulations to player Yinyao for completing Plague City (Hard) for the first time. Let's remember her name!
Congratulations to Little Frog for completing Plague City (Hard) for the first time. Let's remember his name!
Congratulations to player Huang Cheng Gen Xia for completing Plague City (Hard Difficulty) for the first time. Let us remember his name!
…
If seeing her name before was shocking every time, then at this moment, the players in the world really admitted that they were tired and numb and wanted to destroy it quickly.
[Ah, congratulations, big boss, you're awesome... (weak and powerless)]
[… Regarding this first kill announcement, my comment is: I don’t want to comment…]
[Seeing Yin Yao beat the boss, it was like beating a dog; then when I beat the boss myself, the boss beat me, which was also like beating a dog (smile)]
[Eating shit can't catch up with me, but I rushed to the scene as soon as possible today and I have to say, "Sister, I love you!"]
…
At this time, Hei Zhu Luo was standing at the door of the tower, his eyebrows were still curved, and his eyes were squinted so that his pupils could not be seen. Only a vague chill could be felt emanating from them.
Bai Yexing, who followed closely behind, couldn't help but shudder. He lowered his head and bit his lower lip: "Sorry, Hei Zhou, it was my mistake..."
On the way to the tower, they were accidentally ambushed by a bloodthirsty hunter, which caused them to lose the Knight Sword Demon King. Later, they were entangled with the opponent and were delayed for a long time. After finally getting rid of him, when they arrived, the boss was left with only a little health.
Thinking that he must not let the first kill go, Bai Yexing shot an arrow from a distance. He didn't expect that this arrow could attract hatred, but at least it could disrupt the formation inside so that they could seize the Boss.
But he didn't expect that the female poet was so sensitive that she discovered the arrow in her hand as soon as it left the string.
Ordinary players rarely have this level of reaction.
Bai Yexing couldn't help but look at her, then glanced at his own president and was about to say something else.
Hei Zhu Luo flicked his sleeves and smiled unfathomably: "Let's go, it's time to leave the dungeon."
A white light flashed, and the remaining three people of Black and White Wind Shadow instantly turned into fragments and disappeared, then reappeared at the entrance of the copy.
Some other teams who were standing in front of the dungeon and had not yet entered saw that there were only three people left in the Black and White Wind Shadow team. Then they looked at the world channel and found that the system did not notify them of the second or third kill. They all opened their mouths in surprise.
"There are only three people left... Black and White Wind Shadow is so miserable..."
"What's even worse is that they didn't even get any benefit..."
"Those walking in front seem to be their president and vice president, right? Look at their faces, oh my, so miserable..."
Upon hearing the sound, Bai Yexing glared coldly at the group of idlers. The onlookers immediately shut up and dared not say anything more.
Hei Zhu Luo didn't react at all, and there was always a faint and unfathomable smile on his face.
"Go back to the guild, organize the key points and clues of the dungeon, and lead the team into the dungeon again in half an hour." He said with a smile.
The more the guild leader smiled with narrowed eyes, the more Bai Yexing could sense the chill in his heart. Undeterred, he sent a message to his teammates and several guild administrators: [The dungeon strategy must be released within half an hour!]
[Received!] Everyone responded quickly.
The two returned to the guild, and Bai Yexing suddenly received a message from the Sword Demon King.
[Sword Demon King: Vice President, I want to report something to you.]
【Day Night Walk: Talk】
Sword Demon King: It was that time when I and Coco and the others were on the Bass mission. We failed because of a surprise attack~
[Sword Demon King: The one who attacked us was Yin Yao, the poetess! Seeing we'd reduced the monster's health to just one layer, she suddenly rushed over with her men! To hold the monster back, we had to split our attention to fight them, so...]
Bai Ye Xing sneered: [So this is the reason why your mission failed? ]
[White Night Walk: Black and White Wind Shadow doesn't keep useless people, you know that]
[Sword Demon King: Vice President, I was wrong! I shouldn't have made excuses for myself! I let others take advantage of me because of my poor leadership! I will definitely repent, and I beg Vice President to give me another chance!]
Bai Yexing quietly watched the words on the other side, his eyes unconsciously focused on the two words "Yin Yao". He lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then slowly typed out a line of words: [Okay, then I'll give you another chance]
[Sword Demon King: I am all ears!]
[Bai Ye Xing: Pull her into our guild and I'll let you go. Otherwise, you know what the consequences will be.]
It's strange. I have clearly completed the dungeon, but there is no countdown in the dungeon.
What's even stranger is that the boss didn't drop any loot when he died.
Xia Yao searched around No. 1 twice but still found nothing.
The little frog followed her and also noticed something was wrong: "...Are we...playing for nothing?"
I took a lot of red and blue potions, and used up a lot of my equipment's durability, but in the end, I got nothing? This is bullying an honest person!
Huang Cheng also scratched his head suspiciously: "Is it possible that the Boss is not dead yet?"
After saying that, he gave No. 1 a few more sword strikes.
King of Kings: "...There's no need to be so cautious."
Veteran: "It's really dead... Brother, believe me."
"That's strange. We can't make this trip in vain." Huang Cheng shook his head.
"There must be some post-task that hasn't been completed." Xia Yao remembered something and walked deeper into the tower while speaking.
The remaining four people exchanged glances and quickly followed.
Number 1 was indeed dead, but what about Ferdinand, who was being escorted in by the police? The secret between him and Sarah remained unsolved. Xia Yao pondered this as she quietly walked to the base of the tower.
Ferdinand, who had been completely alienated, was huddled in the corner of the prison, shivering. Although his face no longer looked human, one could still tell from his inverted golden pupils that he was extremely frightened.
"I didn't... harm Sarah... It was them... Paradise Research Institute... They needed Sarah's body... to conduct experiments... to sell it... and get the money..."
The alienated Ferdinand spoke incoherently, but it did not prevent Xia Yao and others from hearing the message behind it.
Little Frog: "They say even a tiger won't eat its own cubs, but this beast in human form actually sold his own daughter to the research institute for money!"
Huang Cheng: "What a lovely little sister! To think she ended up like that..."
The King of Kings: "Poor sister."
Veteran: "Damn Ferdinand!"
As if he couldn't hear their conversation, Ferdinand continued to talk to himself in a half-crazy and half-fearful tone: "I love Sarah, she... is lovely... but she... died... in the winter of 1991... she died..."
What? !
Sarah...she's dead?!
The little frog touched the goose bumps on his body and said, "...Did he die of illness?"
Imperial City: “…Maybe.”
The King of Kings: "Poor sister."
Veteran: "Damn Ferdinand!"
Little Frog: Um... could you two change your lines?
Ferdinand finished speaking, tears streaming down his face. "I... shouldn't have listened to that scholar... and put Sarah in the diagram... thinking I could... cure... her illness... She didn't recover... She became a monster... She turned into a monster..."
Scholars? Graphics? Healing?
Xia Yao's eyes flashed. She remembered that all legal professions originated from scholars, but this scholar did not refer to a specific person, but to a certain group.
The scholar Ferdinand mentioned was most likely a forefather of the legal profession from centuries ago. Based on his description of healing, Xia Yao had reason to suspect that this scholar was the predecessor of the Holy Light Messenger.
However, for some unknown reason, the scholar's treatment of Sarah failed. Not only did it fail, but Sarah also became a monster.
Ferdinand, unwilling to keep a monster, sold her to a local research institute for experimentation. Sarah became test subject number one, imprisoned in a dark tower. Day after day of experimentation filled her with hatred, and upon meeting her biological father, Ferdinand, she finally erupted, breaking free from her cage and ultimately being defeated by the player.
A sad story.
But the secret between Ferdinand and Sarah was finally revealed.
However, Xia Yao raised her eyebrows, as there was one point that always concerned her.
She remembered the police officer escorting Ferdinand saying, "Damn Ferdinand, he's actually doing experiments on it again! Don't you think we're busy enough?"
Carrying it on my back to do experiments... and also adding the word "again".
Isn't Ferdinand supposed to be impoverished? How is he even involved in experiments? And it seems the police officer is somewhat aware of his experiments; otherwise, they wouldn't say, "Isn't he busy enough?"
There must be some detail she missed.
Xia Yao focused her attention again, her eyes constantly scanning Ferdinand.
Suddenly! Her pupils widened as she saw something!
"Traveler from the future, I see you."
The dark tide rushed towards her like a ferocious beast, quickly engulfing her, making her unable to move her limbs and unable to breathe through her nostrils!
Xia Yao held her breath and tried hard to open her eyes in the cold water.
She saw a pair of scarlet eyes staring at her from neither far nor near through the tide.
"I have been silent for hundreds of years, and finally waited for your discovery."
