Chapter six hundred and forty-ninth wall ladder
Jiandang Tianxia was not in a hurry, but just stood in the distance as if he was leisurely, quietly looking at the beauty opposite.
When I got closer, I realized that the sword in the female sword saint's hand was densely filled with magic patterns, and the sword spine was inlaid with at least a dozen crystal clear gem fragments, light blue, bright yellow, dark red, etc., which were in harmony with the silver-white sword body, which was very beautiful and pleasing to the eye.
There are many players who have advanced to the Sword Saint within the Sany Alliance. Jiandang Tianxia himself has also come into contact with many advanced NPC blacksmiths, so he knows very well that if he can inlay so many gems on the sword, the blacksmith's skills must be extraordinary.
You should know that all weapons in "Miracles" can only be inlaid with one gem at most. If you are greedy, the attributes of the gems will be covered with useless work, and the worst will be all the gems will be invalid, which will also damage the weapon itself.
This forging process of inlaying several gem fragments on the sword is much worse than inlaid with a complete gem. However, because of this, players can choose to inlay different types of gem fragments to obtain a mixed effect, which is of great benefit to mixed professions such as Magic Swordsman and Ancient Knight.
But this kind of forging technique is not something that ordinary people can learn... Is there a master blacksmith among the lizardmen? It shouldn't be...
However, Jiandang Tianxia was thinking about it here, and he heard a burst of rapid footsteps behind him. The thief player who had left before rushed back.
Jiandangtian nodded to him, and the thief player reached into his backpack, took out a large string of sticky things, raised his hand and threw it on the ground, making a crisp "dongdong" sound.
The female sword saint was full of vigilance. Although the thief's movements did not look like an attack, he still cautiously placed the sword in front of him. Just when he looked to the ground, the lizardman beauty's pupils shrank slightly.
There are seven black-shaped balls on the ground, with a few tentacles hanging on it, with a lot of dust and black and red liquid on it, but they can still distinguish their true colors - they are the heads of the seven inner-grabbing demons!
In the previous battle at the City Lord's Mansion in the center of the city, the Sany Alliance lost a lot of people, but it was not without a loss. Except for two inner-fighting demons who were bombarded by the player's magic, the remaining seven were all taken away by Jiandang Tianxia.
However, even so, Jiandang Tianxia still felt a little angry - the vanguard group of nearly 200 people lost dozens of elite players. As a result, he only killed nine inner-grabbing demons! In the past, when did players fight with monsters, except for boss battles, when did they have such a battle-loss ratio?
At that time, everyone just thought that monsters like the Heart Fighter were a rare monster, with very few numbers, so they might not have any useful materials on their bodies, so they left all the corpses for these octopus heads. It was only after the swordstorm the world discovered this lizard-man beauty, they had the idea of "dedicating their heads".
"This is the enemy we encountered near the City Lord's Mansion. We had a fierce battle with them more than ten minutes ago. I lost dozens of brothers," Jiandang Tianxia glanced at the heads of several octopus on the floor with his eyes, and said to the female sword saint with a serious look on his face: "Can you trust us now?"
"…You said you came for Mithril,"
The beautiful lizard man blinked and tentatively used his sword to pull his head on the ground. It was confirmed that it was a real heart-fighting demon. The expression on his face immediately became much more relaxed, and his eyes looking at Jiandang Tianxia were no longer so strange and vigilant. "If you occupy this mineral vein, do you still plan to occupy this city?"
Jian Dang Tianxia raised his eyebrows slightly, and his brain began to rotate rapidly:
Could this mysterious city be the home of the Lizardman, but was occupied by the Heart Flewer? Judging from the previous situation, there are not many Lizardman warriors controlled by the Heart Flewer, and they still maintain their free will. At present, I have only seen the previous terrifying undead sword saint who was strong and the Lizardman girl in front of me...
Could it be the plot mission here?
Thinking of this, Jiandang the world had already thought of the words.
"The demon of the heart is our common enemy. I am very happy to help you and your tribe regain your home, but..." Jiandang Tianxia said while observing the other party's expression, and he was very cautious in his words, "You know. We adventurers came here with great difficulty, in fact, just for the sake of Misilan and treasures. We have no intention of invading your home, but the treasures here..."
What surprised Jiandangtian was that when he heard this, the beautiful lizard man who had been looking at everyone with his head held high, lowering his head, as if he was frowning and thinking about something. However, everyone did not notice. The moment the female swordsman lowered his head, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"So they didn't know this is..."
The lizardman beauty's lips twitched slightly, and no one heard her muttering something. Then, the man raised his head and poked the big sword in his hand to the ground.
Jiandang Tianxia was delighted to see this: this is a signal to lift the state of combat...
"The things here are all unparalleled things, you can take them at will. You just need to promise me one condition, and I can share information with you..."
An excited light had already lit up in the female sword saint's eyes, and she smiled slightly at Jiandangtian: "A piece of information about the inner-fighting demon in this city!"
***
The building in front of me is tall and majestic, and the whole body is made of bright gray granite. The length of each piece of granite exceeds Fang Yi's height and is nearly three feet tall. The four pillars standing in front of the building are all six feet above the diameter, with rough stone carvings on the surface, and the vivid carving techniques are amazing.
After leaving the hiding place, Fang Yi advanced all the way to the city center, and found this temple, the Moradin Temple, not far from the city lord's mansion and the administrative hall.
The form of the temple is very similar to that of the Cantor City, but the scale is several times smaller. But even so, the natural majesty of the dwarf building still makes Fang Yi, a player from another dimension, amazed.
Fang Yi had entered the temple, looking at the mottled and messy footprints on the surrounding floor, he showed an interesting expression.
Of course, Fang Yi stayed here not for sightseeing.
Going further forward is the core area of the city. All the players of the Sany League retreated to the periphery and blocked the surrounding roads tightly.
The city lord's mansion and the city administrative center are next to each other. If they don't occupy the most valuable place as soon as possible, why are they staying outside?
Could it be that it was made by the octopus head?
Thinking of this, Fang Yi was gloating. Originally, these hundreds of players in the Sany League were a huge threat to Fang Yi - just kill the monsters directly. Even if they couldn't be killed, there would definitely be a way to deal with them in the mission plot.
Players are different. Everyone is in a competitive relationship. Either you die or I live, and there is no room for maneuver.
These octopus heads can force out all the elite teams of the Sany League. There must be a lot of them, and there might be one or two small bosses, so Fang Yi did not rush to cross the player's blockade line, but planned to observe it on the outside to see if he could find a way to eavesdrop on some news from these players.
It is because of this that Fang Yi, who was wandering around, accidentally discovered this "extraordinary" temple.
Because no one has managed it for a long time, this city in the middle of the lake is almost everywhere, and there are only a large number of footprints and walking marks on the route to the stone bridges around the island. I think it is left by the monsters of various colors controlled by the Heart Flayer.
But this temple is not the case.
Not only are there a large number of footprints left recently on the ground, but there are also traces of being turned around in every corner of the temple. The stone walls in many places were chiseled, revealing the cross-section of stones with gray spots. The originally magnificent hall was made of a hole in the east and a gap in the west, which was very disgusting.
This phenomenon is so abnormal... Who is the person in this city? Apart from the octopus head, they are the younger brothers of the octopus head. Then the people who are making great destruction here must be them. What are they looking for here?
So Fang Yi sent Ji Feng out, hid in the corner and secretly observed the movements of the players, while he tiptoed into the temple.
...
The layout of this temple is more exquisite than that of Cantor, except for the hall in the middle. There are four small halls around it. The light emitted by various ores in the cave is scattered in this hall. It looks so vague, and it feels like a decorative lamp in reality.
However, the things in the house had been destroyed. Needless to mention the wooden tables and wooden chairs, even the stone tables, stone chairs and statues were smashed to pieces, and they all turned into gravel all over the ground. Fang Yi wandered around in it for a long time, but he couldn't see a complete thing.
Damn, do these octopus heads have an enemy with the dwarves?
Fang Yi held a fragment of a Moradin statue in his hand. It was very puzzled. But then he thought that the evil octopus monster was not boring, and if the heart-fighting demon really had a grudge against the residents here, he would just destroy the city. What kind of anger was vented on this temple?
While thinking hard, Fang Yi followed the corridor to the room that was closest to the inside.
This is a rectangular hall with no load-bearing pillars in the room. From this end you can directly see the broken statue on the other end of the room.
Compared with the previous places, there were much fewer stone fragments here, but there were a lot of broken wood that had already rotted. Fang Yi carefully avoided the debris on the ground, tried not to make any sound, and tiptoed in.
Well... this should be a small prayer room... Fang Yi observed it around and thought of it like this.
In the game, everyone must pray to the gods they believe in regularly so that they can have the ability to use the corresponding magic. For NPC, this is an indispensable solemn process, but it is much simpler for players. The system maximizes the reduction of this ritual, otherwise it will really cause public anger.
Looking at the room in front of you, Fang Yi could imagine that at that time, there were many dwarf priests praying devoutly to Moradin here. Among them were father and son, mother and daughter, and friends and brothers. Everyone was immersed in the ecstasy of discovering the Misilan vein and was full of gratitude to the Father God. Not long after, this Misilan vein became the culprit for everyone's loss of their homes...
Fang Yi wandered around the house and found that it was as empty as before, with nothing but fragments and wreckage on the ground.
After sighing lightly, Fang Yi was not disappointed. This is how he did the task. Ninety-nine percent of his efforts in the process may be in vain. Only by finding the right clue can he have the chance to touch the final answer.
As he came, Fang Yi cleverly walked past the obstacle and walked towards the door quickly and steadily. However, when he reached a place more than ten steps away from the door, Fang Yi, who was lying on his waist, paused suddenly, and stood there like a statue, and his right foot, which had already been lifted, slowly put back.
A drop of sweat slowly flowed down from his forehead, crossed his temple and passed through his cheeks. But Fang Yi had no intention of wiping it. Because at this time, Fang Yi was staring at a broken stone slab in front of the left, without blinking.
Damn... I saw clearly when I came in just now. There were absolutely no footprints in this corner! So what is this!?
Fang Yi's eyes almost narrowed into a line, staring at the narrow and long footprints on the stone slab with three toes. His nervous heart pounded, and his back was soaked with sweat in an instant.
Oh, you, Banban... There are others in this room...
When he thought of this, Fang Yi subconsciously took his breath much lighter, and then he squatted on the ground very slowly, turned his head and looked around, and his palms holding the hilt were already covered in sweat.
It’s not that Fang Yi is so nervous. The sudden footprint in front of him is obviously not a player, but a beast or a certain NPC! The mysterious man’s stealth skill is superb. Fang Yi has a listening skill on his body but he doesn’t notice it at all...
The assassin-type npc is undoubtedly the most annoying...
However, Fang Yi is not a young man anymore. He quickly adjusted his mentality and his mood changed from extreme tension to a state of intertwined excitement and tension.
If there is NPC here, it means there are clues. No matter what he does, catch it first and interrogate it!
Fang Yi lowered his body and leaned on the ground, carefully looked at the surrounding ground, and recalled the whole process of his arrival. He was sure that he had left no traces. He felt relieved and tiptoed to the door and got up in the corner of the door.
Since the other party is better than me, he is probably still in this room now, and he just needs to wait for the rabbit. Fang Yi slowly pulled out the scimitar and dagger while thinking so.
...
The showdown between the two stalkers is the interweaving of silence and blood, and the competition of speed and reaction. The quietness and silence at the beginning are just for the connection between the hand and blades later. The blood is seen with one knife. The basic quality of every master who is used to hiding in the dark to attack.
Fang Yi knew this very well.
So when time passed by minute by minute, and there was no movement at the door three minutes later, Fang Yi was still very patient. It was like two snipers sniping each other. Whoever had exhausted his patience first meant that he had lost half of it.
The air here is actually not very good. The smell of dust is floating in the air in the room, which is a bit pungent. Fortunately, Fang Yi has Altaïr's mask, so the impact is not much.
Suddenly!
An extremely slight cough came from Fang Yi's right front, blowing up all the hairs on Fang Yi's body!
You should know that Fang Yi is on the left side of the door now, with the left half of his body close to the wall. Logically speaking, if someone comes out of the house, Fang Yi will first notice the abnormal movement.
But the sound came from the right, which means that the visitor had already walked out of the room and walked over less than a foot in front of Fang Yi!
How high is this stealth technique?
But Fang Yi has no time to consider these issues. Now everything in this city in the middle of the lake is a fog. He urgently needs to find a breakthrough to get in. Since he has seen NPC, how can he let it go?
So Fang Yi reacted as soon as he heard the sound. The iridescent jet scroll in Jenna's ring was instantly excited, and a small colorful cloud suddenly lit up in the slightly dim corridor!
At the same time, Fang Yi's figure had crossed the afterimage brought out by the magic light and headed straight for the target! Because within the range of the iridescent jet, a thin figure had already appeared from the air.
Fang Yi could feel that the other party was hit by the spell. Although the other party was stunned for a short time, and although before the other party turned around, Fang Yi, who had an extraordinary reaction speed, still discovered this abnormality of less than 0.2 seconds.
Therefore, Fang Yi's sneak attack did not stop. The sharp scimitar with an electric light rushed straight to the opponent's right arm, while the elf dagger was very sinisterly pushing towards the opponent's anus - this kind of attack would not cause fatal damage to the opponent, but would be enough to temporarily lose the opponent's combat power.
The thin figure's skills were much faster than Fang Yi expected! Although he was delayed by the iridescent spray, the forward-length + turning movement was as elegant as the breeze. He was still facing away from Fang Yi's back to Fang Yi's next moment, and turned around in the air the next moment. While he was pushing Fang Yi's blade, the weapon in his hand had already come up.
The next moment, Fang Yi burst into tears.
"Damn it!..."
Fang Yi cursed swearingly because what the other party pulled out of his body was a two-handed sword! Just a light lift, Fang Yi was slapped back with the man and the knife, and hit the stone wall firmly, making a loud "bang!"
Cheating...Damn...
Fang Yi never thought that the opponent would be a heavy weapon! The stealth skill is so powerful, which means that it is at least a high-level part-time thief. So in order to maximize the thief's combat attributes, it is impossible to use heavy weapons.
But the facts in front of us proved that Fang Yi was wrong.
Fang Yi, who was photographed flying, did not twist up again, but quickly took a step to the left, and stood up with his back to the exit of the corridor - he only fought once, Fang Yi knew that the person in front of him was too strong, and he might not be able to fight hard... He should just use virtue to convince people...
The mysterious man did not pursue him. The whole body was covered in a long gray cloak. The big sword in his hand was carrying it on his shoulder. He was tilting his head and looking at Fang Yi. There seemed to be two shimmering light under the cap!
