Chapter 142 Prank(1/2)
"It seems to be heading towards the cemetery. I'm not sure." The npc clerk said without being sure.
I nodded and expressed my gratitude. Then I left the store and summoned Ye Ying to turn over and ride up, and then rushed towards the cemetery. Although the clerk was not sure that the other party must be heading in this direction, I think this should not be a big problem. There must be corpses in the cemetery, which means there are many undead creatures. It is too easy for me to find a way to find a way.
The tomb group was not far from the previous gathering point, and it should be able to arrive very quickly at night shadow speed.
This gathering point was originally an open space between a valley. The cemetery led to a relatively narrow path, which required to advance along the cliff on the side of a mountain. However, although the road was narrow, it was not dangerous. On the left was a cliff, which almost went straight up, and even monkeys could not climb up. On the right was not a deep valley, nor another dodge, but a hillside with a large slope, with many plants on it, and the environment was pretty good.
Yeying trotted along the road under my command. A few minutes later, the cliff on the left suddenly turned a corner away from the road, and the original cliff was replaced by a forest. The hillside on the right had also become flat in this area, and the low shrubs growing on the hillside were gradually replaced by various taller and denser trees.
Since entering this forest, the surrounding environment has become more and more intimate. Of course, I am the only one who can feel this intimate feeling, and other players may become more and more worried as they walk. The surrounding trees are getting taller and taller, and the road is getting narrower and narrower. The canopies on both sides begin to meet above the road, and finally overlap completely, resulting in a dimness below the entire road. Although it does not affect the sight, the atmosphere is no longer right.
The dark dense forest path winds forward. Although the big trees on both sides are still the same species as before, the colors of the trees are gradually changing. The original green leaves combined with the yellow-brown trunks form a vibrant forest landscape, but as the later dense forest becomes darker, the colors of the surrounding trees begin to change. The trunks have changed from yellow-brown to a dark brown that is almost black, and the leaves have also changed from crisp grass green to a rich dark green. Even if you say that it is black, it is barely reasonable.
The change of color is just a manifestation of the atmosphere change. I also found that the shrubs between the surrounding trees gradually transitioned from the previous broad-leaved plants and ferns to a vine plant. This thing also looks dark green, and the ball of rolls together is like a large ball of barbed wire, with no leaves visible on it, only a lot of sharp needles. If the vine of this thing is thinner and the needles are longer, it will be similar to the devil vine, but this is obviously not.
The change of trees and shrubs was just the beginning. Then a faint white mist began to appear on the road. The fog was not very thick, but the light here was not good, so the sight range was even worse. What you could see within the twenty meters of sight were tree trunks, thorny vines and black ground, and nothing else could be seen. No matter how far away it was, it was basically white, completely blocked by the fog.
This environment is actually very typical. This is the most popular manifestation of the high concentration of dark energy that the undead creatures like, so I feel friendly because the armor of my body is automatically absorbing this dark energy, so even I feel a little excited. Of course, for most players, they should have begun to be nervous or even scared now.
While feeling the situation here, I was staring around. My main purpose was to find a deceased to ask about the situation. Although the clerk before was unlikely to read it wrong, just in case I found a deceased creature here to confirm that I did see those people passing by.
I was looking for it here, and suddenly I felt the fog in front tumbling. The originally thin fog gathered high in a region, then gradually twisted and deformed, and finally formed an enlarged face, which looked at least three meters high.
This face made of rich mist immediately rushed towards me after it appeared, at a very fast speed, and a strange scream in its mouth, which made people feel uncomfortable.
The first reaction of a normal person when he saw this situation was probably to turn around and run away, but I didn't react to it. The face did not have any undead magic fluctuations, some were just the wind-type magic power, and it was very weak. This kind of thing was enough to scare people, but it would be too forced to hurt people.
Although I am not afraid of this thing, circles of green halos suddenly lit up on the ground under Ye Ying's feet. This is my black magic halo. At this time, it is a negative energy environment. Turning on the black magic halo can greatly improve my attributes, and it can automatically restore magic and health, which is very useful to me.
As the black magic guide's halo opened, my perception range continued to expand. Finally, several figures entered my sensing range.
After slightly pinching Ye Ying's belly, a rolling black fog immediately appeared in front of Ye Ying. Then, without waiting for the face made of white mist to bite us, Ye Ying jumped into the black fog in front, and then the black fog directly dispersed and gradually dissipated after we entered.
"Huh? Where is the person?"
A few people ran out from behind a big rock not far away. These were quite young players, the oldest of whom was a young player in his twenties. He looked like an Asian, but he was not sure about his specific nationality. A slightly smaller than this male player was a female player, who might be only ten years old, and his race could not be determined. He might be mixed-race and was quite beautiful. He was wearing a light ground armor and a high ponytail, and he should be a pure and capable path.
There are a little more players following these two young people, about five or six, but the oldest is only thirteen or fourteen years old, and they should be Asian. The latter are all over ten years old, but they should not be fourteen, and the youngest one is just ten years old. Most of these children are Asian, and only one looks like a white child.
To be honest, it was really surprising to see a children's group here. Looking at their appearance, I knew that they were not going to attack me, they should be just a prank for children. Speaking of which, many children in the game like to play pranks in places with heavy negative attributes to scare people. Although children are generally afraid of the dark, fear of devils, ghosts, etc. But although they are afraid, children generally do not admit it, and they also like to be heroes. The more you say he is afraid, the more he says he is not afraid. This is the nature of a child.
Because of this nature, many young players like to gather in such places to scare people. First, they will feel gloating when they see others being scared, and second, they feel that scaring others in such places can prove their "braveness". Of course, there is another reason for this situation, that is, the system strictly regulates the game of minors. Although minors are allowed to play, they require the permission of the guardian and there are various restrictions. Because there are many restrictions, most children are not real professional players after entering the game, but will change their jobs into a profession that only minors can change jobs. Because of the many restrictions, children are mostly not real professional players after entering the game, but will change jobs into a profession that only minors can change jobs.
System. This occupation system is mostly the same as the normal system, and can also be upgraded to obtain attributes, but the occupation name is different, and it restricts many things, and even the equipment is different. The most special one is the equipment system. The equipment system of minors is classified by age, each time is three years old, starting from three years old to eighteen years old, with an independent equipment system at each stage. For example, the equipment of children aged six to nine is often very cute, especially when girls even have plush toys like panda clothing, and the attributes of these equipment can sometimes make you feel speechless.
Although I have never encountered a child with this kind of equipment, I heard from Rose that I met a child with a rabbit server before. The attributes of that equipment were super weird. The first one was to learn to jump without physical strength, and it was very fast. It could jump out two or three meters in one step. It was only a little slower than the adult running at full speed. In addition, this rabbit server has an invincible attribute called rabbit camouflage. This attribute is a passive attribute and will always take effect. With this attribute protection, all wild creatures whose intelligence level does not reach human level will ignore them directly, which is equivalent to invincible invisibility, and the detection method depends entirely on the intelligence level. Even if the intelligence does not meet the standards, you will not be able to see them even if you have the full level of the reconnaissance technique.
This kind of special equipment is obviously found in the equipment of the little kids, because I saw a little girl wearing a colorful gauze dress, like a little princess. This kind of thing is obviously not for combat, and it goes without saying that it must have child protection attributes. Of course, the equipment in front of the boys is closer to that of adults. After all, the armor in "Zero" is very handsome, so boys will certainly like it.
Because of my sudden disappearance, the children and the two young men walked out from behind the stones and walked tentatively to the place where I disappeared. After confirming that I was really unable to see me, they simply walked to the road where I had just disappeared and searched around. Of course, they found nothing, because I had already entered the shadow with Yeying at this time.
Don’t forget that Ye Ying and I are both members of the dark forces. We can be completely invisible in the shadows. This place is so dark, and we can almost have the advantage of the home court in such a place. Isn’t it a slight idea to cheat children?
"Strange, why didn't you see me?" A child asked the two young men over there in confusion after he didn't find anyone after he walked around.
The young man said with some uncertainty: "Maybe he used teleportation skills."
"Didn't it mean that the teleportation reel has a halo?" the mixed-blood mm asked in confusion.
"It should be like this in theory, but the person's equipment just now looked very good, so he should have some special abilities." The young man was not very sure.
"Oh, I wanted to scare him, but I didn't expect to scare him away. That person was so timid." A child complained.
"That's it!" said the oldest boy of the group of children, who was fourteen, very disdainful: "It's a waste, no matter how well equipped it is, it's garbage, useless things!"
The mixed-race mm over there frowned when he heard the boy's words and said, "Xiaoliang, don't speak like this. Our pranks have caused trouble for others. It is normal for others to be scared or not to be scared. Why do you insult others?"
"Is that guy just a waste?" The boy called Xiaoliang obviously wanted to be dissatisfied and had no sense of admitting his mistakes.
The young man around the mixed-race mm also came to help the mixed-race mm and said, "Yes, Xiaoliang, be polite to others. It is wrong for you to do this. You can't always regard others as inferior. Although your identity is indeed much higher than that of ordinary people, you can't discriminate against others for no reason. This is not good."
"Hmph, don't think you can catch up with my sister by talking to her. If you offend me, you will get out of here."
"Xiaoliang, how do you say?" The mixed-blooded mm was obviously really angry this time.
The boy didn't take his sister's anger seriously, turned around and walked back and said, "Are you bored or not, come back quickly and hide. The next group of fools should soon appear, just in time to scare them."
Although the other children around him wanted to go back and play tricks, they did not follow him and looked at the mixed-race mm. After all, only she and the young man could barely be considered adults here.
The mixed-race mm looked at his brother helplessly, and after thinking about it, he turned around and walked towards the stone where he had been hiding before. However, his face was obviously not very good. The other children and young men naturally followed him after seeing the mixed-race mm moving.
I heard their entire conversation next to me, and I was somewhat dissatisfied with the boy. Although this was a child, it was really arousing and arrogant. After thinking about it, I still felt that I would punish him a little, so I stretched out my hand and the rose vine slid silently into the ground, and then drilled into the boy's feet and stretched out a branch to block his feet.
"Oh..." The unprepared boy tripped to the ground, but before he could get up, the ground next to him suddenly burst, and a bone hand suddenly stretched out from under the ground and grabbed him in the face. "Ah..." With a scream, the boy bounced up directly from the ground, and then crawled backwards for a long time before stopping. Obviously, he was very scared just now.
"What's going on?" Hearing the scream, the young man and the mixed-race mm who were behind rushed over immediately. As a result, they happened to see the ground in front being flipped, and the white skeletons were crawling out hard under the ground.
The young man immediately understood the situation when he saw this. He walked over without caring and raised his leg and kicked the skeleton's head, trying to kick the skeleton's head, which was still in the soil. However, just as he was about to hit the hit, the skeleton in front suddenly placed his bone claws in front of him and caught the instep that he kicked.
"Ah!..." The young man who was caught in the foot suddenly fell down and began to scream desperately, but the skeleton crawled out of the ground with his feet and shook off the soil on his body and stood up.
When I saw the skeletons come out before, this young man didn't take it seriously. After all, the skeleton soldiers are only the lowest-level troops. Although he is only at level 1,200 now, he can only be considered an average level in the game, but no matter what, it is easy to deal with a few skeletons. Moreover, the other party was still half in the soil at that time, so it was easier to deal with the difficulty of movement.
Unfortunately, this guy was destined to be in trouble today. Not only did he not kick the skeleton, but his ankle was pinched and it felt like it was about to break. Moreover, as the skeleton completely drilled out of the ground and shook off the soil on his body, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
The regular white bone skeleton should have pale bones as if the bones of the skeleton are as white as paper. However, although the bones of the skeleton are also white, there are many shiny photoelectrics in it, which seem not pale, but pearly white. This white with obvious luster is obviously not the characteristic of the white bone skeleton, but...
"I x..." The young man suddenly reacted and turned around and got up and ran. Although his legs were limp, he jumped and jumped quite quickly.
Seeing this guy running back quickly, the mixed-race mm who caught up with him asked loudly incomprehensible: "Why are you running?"
The young man grabbed the mixed-race mm and ran and shouted: "Everyone ran with me, that's a platinum skeleton!"
"Platinum Skeleton?"
"It's the alienated version of the Golden Skeleton. Although it is on par with the Golden Skeleton, its combat power is quite powerful!"
“How strong is it?”
"I don't know, we can't beat it anyway!" The young man was still shouting at the children running, but suddenly he felt a huge resistance coming from his hands.
The mixed-race mm shook his hand away and turned around and ran back. He was stunned for a moment, but when he turned around, he found that the children were all standing there in frightened and dared not move.
Although the system has protective measures for the children, the skeletons I summoned did not attack them. The system was not strict enough to even let them see. However, the children were children after all, and it was okay when they were fine. After all, something really happened, but it was still not as good as those who were experienced adults. The children all stood there so scared that they didn't dare to move, and even forgot to escape.
The mixed-race mm ran back when she saw the children not moving. Not to mention that this is a game, it is no big deal if she dies. Even in reality, she would not let the children ignore her life for her own life.
The skeleton crawled out was just among the children. The mixed-blood mm was pulled out a lot, and even if she ran back, it was a little slower. After the platinum skeleton came out, it opened its mouth and spit out a white mist, as if it could spit fire in its mouth. Then it turned around and walked towards a little girl beside her who had already started to cry.
The mixed-race mm originally thought that it was going to be hit, but who knew that the platinum skeleton did not attack after walking to the little girl, but suddenly squatted down.
The little girl was so scared that she stopped crying when she saw the platinum skull squatting down. She didn't even dare to cry anymore.
Seeing that the skeleton did not attack, the mixed-blood mm stopped. She was afraid that her behavior would cause the other party's attack, so she did not dare to move around.
After squatting down, the Platinum Skeleton looked at the little girl in front of her, and then made an unexpected thing. He did not attack, but opened his mouth to speak. Generally speaking, the skeleton cannot speak, after all, there is no sound flesh, let alone the vocal cord. However, the Platinum Skeleton is a high-level undead, and it is already a very high-end undead creature. Whether it is using magic to shake the air or directly talk to the soul, it is not a problem for them.
"Child, say your name." The skeleton asked with a tremolo, much like a machine's sound.
The child was frightened and after a long time, he said timidly: "My name is Emma!"
Platinum Skeleton nodded and asked, "Very good, Emma, tell me now, are you a bad boy?"
After hearing this, the little girl shook her head immediately and said, "I am a good child." As if she was afraid that the other party would not believe it, she also emphasized specifically: "
Really, my sister says I am the most obedient.”
Platinum Skeleton nodded again and said, "Since that's the case, I can't hurt you anymore. Our lord said, you can't hurt a good child, otherwise you will be punished." Platinum Skeleton suddenly stood up, then glanced at the other children next to him and said, "But I want to eat a child so much! This is a good child that cannot be eaten, but what should I do? By the way, there are so many here, there must be bad children inside." Platinum Skeleton said, and turned around and walked towards the other child.
To be honest, teenagers actually know a lot. If they were to be normal, they would definitely be able to see through such lies, but now they are scared. When they are scared, even adults will not react much better, let alone a group of children.
When the Platinum Skeleton walked to the other child, the other party still looked at the Platinum Skeleton in fear and didn't dare to say anything. It was not until the Platinum Skeleton asked him if he was a good child that the other party nodded desperately to indicate that he was a good child.
"Oh, why is it another good child? This is not something to eat, it's really troublesome!" Platinum Skeleton pretended to be very depressed and turned around to ask the next child. At this time, the other children were no longer as scared as they were at the beginning. The girl who was scared to cry at first stopped crying, but also stood up and walked to the second child who had been questioned.
With the example above, the other children asked by Platinum Skeleton were of course desperately ensuring that they were good kids, so after asking around, no child was a bad kid. However, there was still a big kid in the center of the venue. The fourteen-year-old child was actually similar to adults in many aspects. Although he was still a little reckless in his behavior and was relatively reckless, he basically had the ability to act as an adult. The Platinum Skeleton walked to the big kid and did not squat down, but looked down at him who was still sitting on the ground and asked: "So, are you a good kid?"
"I'm a good boy." He stood up as he said. Because he was the oldest and was finally asked, he had relieved from his fear, and after the fear passed, his personality began to take effect. The boy who lost his sense of fear began to despise the platinum skeleton in front of him, thinking that it was a mentally retarded skeleton, and he was already quite disdainful of it.
He originally planned to leave after answering this question, because the previous question and answer was like this. After the Platinum Skeleton asked, the children answered that I was a good child, and the Platinum Skeleton would immediately change the target. However, this time it was different. Just after the boy answered, the Platinum Skeleton was still standing and not moving.
The boy who was already quite disdainful of the Platinum Skeleton asked rudely: "I am a good boy, why are you still standing here if you can't threaten me?"
The Platinum Skeleton did not leave obediently, but suddenly reached out and put her hand on the boy's shoulders, then put her head up, aiming her empty eye socket at the boy's eyes. In the empty eye sockets of the Platinum Skeleton, the red soul fire jumped and burned, looking extremely terrifying.
"What are you doing when you are holding me?" Although the boy was still very disdainful of this platinum skeleton, he was already a little nervous again.
Instead of letting go of him, Platinum Skeleton increased its strength and pinched his shoulder and said, "No, you are not a good child. I read deception and arrogance from your soul. You are rude and have no morals. You are a bad child. Hahahaha..." Platinum Skeleton laughed to the sky and said again, "At last, there is a bad child who can eat. Hurry up, don't struggle, let me eat you. Don't worry, it won't hurt much, it will end soon."
"Ah... don't..." After all, he is still a child. It may be nothing when bullying people. The child's characteristics will be reflected when encountering danger. The boy struggled desperately to run, but how could he, a child, bend over the platinum skeleton? The power of this thing can bend the steel bars like noodles!
"Enough." The mixed-race mm suddenly rushed over and protected the boy, then looked around and shouted angrily: "Where are you hiding? Come out. I know you want to punish him for being ignorant, but he is a child after all, and you can't treat him like this. What should I do if I leave a psychological shadow?"
After all, she was an adult. She had nothing to do when she was panicking before. After she found that the Platinum Skeleton was not threatening, she could naturally react. The Platinum Skeleton's behavior was a little thoughtful. She asked the child if she was a good child and said that she was eating bad children. Of course, this kind of thing that specifically scared children could not deceive adults. So when the Platinum Skeleton asked the second child, she had already guessed that someone was deliberately manipulating the Platinum Skeleton to play with her. However, she also thought that this method was not bad, and it did not really scare any child. It would make the child a lot of obedience, so she did not come out to expose it directly. But when the Platinum Skeleton said she wanted to eat her brother and screamed in fear, she finally couldn't help but rush out.
I didn't plan to hide it all the time. After the other party asked, I replied directly: "For such a child, instead of letting him go to society and leaving a shadow to more people, otherwise letting him live alone with a shadow. This is actually a good thing for most people."
With the words, the children around, the mixed-race mm and the young man focused their attention to the location where the sound occurred, and then they saw a person riding a horse slowly revealing it in the flow of electric light. Obviously, this is invisible, not teleportation, and the mixed-race mm and the young man were also shocked, because my position was less than five meters away from them.
"You've been here all the time?" asked the young man in fear.
I nodded, and then looked at the mixed-race mm and the boy in her arms. "This kind of child is spoiled by you, and it will only benefit him if he suffers some setbacks."
"So you were playing tricks on me." The boy reacted now. In the atmosphere, he suddenly broke free from his sister's arms and rushed towards me. He pulled out the weapon behind him and jumped up and chopped towards me.
To be continued...
