As she walked through the eerily quiet streets, Isloa replayed the recent events in her mind.
“Is it over?”
“That was fast!”
She glanced distantly at the Rakshasa, with its green, fanged face, dark, burly body; truly a fearsome… well, an effective…warrior, considering how his appearance alone could terrify opponents.
Though, he seemed a bit too strong considering the lord indicated that all other formidable beings just recently broke through, excluding General Dead Bone and General Duo Lai.
If the Rakshasa is of the same level as her, Isloa, after comparing, found herself lacking certainty in winning.
She is a hero!
The genius hero who defeated Windsor, Blaze, and Fei Xi, and stood out in harsh competition with a legendary demeanor!
She once thought she was the strongest in Tianyuan, and would aid the lord in reaching the summit.
But after coming here,
The second strongest.
The third strongest.
She had doubts whether she would eventually fall to being the nth strongest in Tianyuan.
Isloa is skeptical about her life.
When she goes back, she must work harder; exert more effort in dividing herself to handle various affairs. Otherwise, her dream of being the right hand of the lord will keep drifting.
Not far away,
Bone Two glanced at the Rakshasa, then at Dead Bone, and stepped forward,
“Big Brother, Second Brother also wants to fight!”
He thought, his ranking was the same as the Rakshasa, and so was their level.
If the Rakshasa could instantly kill a shadow pupil monster, it doesn’t make sense that he, Bone Two, couldn’t.
Bone Three: “Me too!”
Dead Bone glanced at them and symbolically knocked on their helmets with a conjured black mist: Shape up, you lot!
The group of skeletons, ghosts, and people continued their trek deeper into Trick City. They encountered some monsters along the way, but most were merely Professional -level ‘small monsters’.
Although the monsters in Trick City were strange in both form and ability, they could not make waves against absolute power.
As for strangeness, the Undead, like Dead Bone, were never afraid.
Which undead was ever scared?
After they had gathered more and more information, the tactical commands from General Dead Bone got increasingly meticulous. Sometimes they could evade encounters with monsters for up to ten minutes or more, thanks to Dead Bone’s keen observation and skillful prediction.
On the other hand, the player teams in Trick City encountered wave after wave of monsters.
There were many explorers in this area.
Dead Bone treated the player teams with respect and caution, but never forgot to gather some information about them from a distance.
Players from Tai Xuan and Shen Yao seem to have clashed in the east.”
Rumour has it that someone unearthed a rare treasure in the Black Tree Area. Should we go and check it out?”
Watch out, there are quite a few wanted players in Trick City, all of them are ruthless killers.”
Upon hearing of ‘treasure’, Duo Lai, like a triggered puppet, had sparkling eyes.
What a pity, General Dead Bone would not join in any of the excitement, and he certainly would not covet any treasures beyond the mission’s objective.
Things like Tai Xuan, Shen Yao, treasures, killers, etc. have no concern to him.
He follows the lord’s commands.
He led the team at a steady but not slow pace.
One hour,
Two hours,
Four hours.
Trick City was far from small, and the environment was complex, not to mention the presence of unpredictable players. Dead Bone had to be more wary than usual. If it was a standard attack raid, Dead Bone would certainly take several, or even tens of times longer to carefully scout the terrain and push forward slowly.
However, this time their mission was a deep rescue. Once they finished rescuing, they would leave.
Of course, he had to avoid some tedious processes of brain and brawn.
Being steady wasn’t always an impediment.
“We seem to be close.”
Isloa said.
An instinctual sense, or maybe a revelation from the heavens and earth, told her strongly that her past companions were not far from here.
But at this moment, she grew more and more anxious, fearing her expectations were in vain.
After all, it was so dangerous back then. Even her, the strongest one was killed by a monster. Could the others really have survived?
She was afraid.
But she gritted her teeth, there was no use worrying! The sooner she faced reality, the more possibilities there would be.
“Follow me.”
This area was deeper into Trick City; filled with strange noises. The worn streets with their crisscrossing shadows resembled a spider’s web, waiting for prey to be caught.
But other than this, there weren’t many monsters, and the players were much more sparse.
Dead Bone’s group hadn’t seen a team of players for almost half an hour.
Suddenly, Mu Yuan’s brows furrowed. From the low-flying Camera Falcon, he spotted several figures in the distance that were markedly different from the monsters.
It was a team of players.
About several players in the team, and some formidable soldiers like Halberd Guards, Goblin Warriors, and Wolf Cavalry accompanying them. A group that, at first glance, was filled with elite players.
Only, they were running away.
Fleeing in panic.
Had they encountered a powerful monster?
Dead Bone quickly went into alert and silently retreated into a side alley. Battle should be avoided whenever possible.
By commanding three cameras at the same time, Mu Yuan saw clearly.
A dark red blade light shot from the shadows, entwining around the escaping Goblin Warrior like a python. It shredded the splendid armor and sturdy body as easily as tearing fabric.
Only a green head with bulging eyes, filled with palpable fear, was left rolling around.
It was a human!
Stepping out from the shadows was a thin man with a blade. He wore a black cloak, had a lean and tall body, a narrow and long face, sunken eye sockets, and a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth. He extended his flexible, snake’-like tongue to lick the blood from the blade, revealing a look of ecstasy.
