Chapter 110 'Hunting'
"Phantom, the First Archer wants to talk to you about something." Looking at the withering Bauhinia's aggressive posture, Ma Yingjie secretly sighed that trouble was coming. The corner of his eye inadvertently glanced at Phantom who was feeling contented. A plan came to his mind, and he quickly shouted to Phantom.
"Really?" After hearing what Ma Yingjie said, Phantom stood up excitedly, looked around, and quickly locked his target on the withered Bauhinia flower.
"What? Even the No. 1 archer is not worthy of you?" Lu Hao said with a mischievous smile, ignoring the anger from the withered bauhinia flowers and the arrows that could explode at any time.
"How could that be possible? I am pollen." Phantom said jokingly, but his eyes were not as dull as he showed. He looked around the withered bauhinia flowers with his black eyes while making his evaluation.
Well, she has a slim figure, a coquettish physique, a striking face like a peach blossom stained with spring snow, jade arms like lotus roots, fingers like green onions, often hunting tigers, wolves and monsters, holding a chaos bow in her hand. Scary, she is indeed a generation of tennis beauties, people can't help but indulge in her.
"Then you guys discuss it in depth first, I'll go to the bathroom." Seeing that the matter was settled, Ma Yingjie quickly prepared to run away.
"Asshole, come back here. Why don't you find an excuse? Find me a toilet in the game. Damn it, do you think I'm a moron?" The withered Bauhinia saw that Lu Hao was about to run away, and immediately put her hands on her waist, sank her energy into her dantian, and roared like a lion with ten levels of power, as if to pierce the sky.
"Sister Bauhinia, what do you want to talk to me about? Actually, I have admired you for a long time. I will do my best to help you if there is anything I can do." Hearing the authentic Chinese curse of the withered Bauhinia, the phantom's body was shocked. Seeing that the withered Bauhinia wanted to chase Lu, the phantom immediately stood between the two, allowing Lu Hao to escape in the chaos. When the withered Bauhinia got rid of the phantom's entanglement, Lu Hao had already disappeared in the vast crowd of players.
"Okay, you want to help me, right? Get out of here right now." The withered Bauhinia flower vented all its anger for not being able to catch Ma Yingjie on Phantom.
"Damn, you vicious woman. Who would want you when you're so fierce?" Phantom's face darkened. After all, he was a well-known figure in the game. Of course, he felt uncomfortable being scolded by the withered redbud.
"What did you say?" The withered Bauhinia raised his eyebrows and looked aggressive, which made Phantom feel a strong sense of threat.
"What do you want to do? I tell you that if you use force in the city, the guards will deal with you. I'm not afraid of you in a simple fight, so don't embarrass yourself." Phantom looked at the withered bauhinia flowers with a tense posture, knowing that if he said a few more words, it might turn into street violence, so he warned hurriedly.
…………
Ma Yingjie followed Absolute Zero slowly, admiring Absolute Zero's skinny figure. Absolute Zero was a mage, so Ma Yingjie didn't have to worry about losing him. The communicator began to ring continuously, and he knew with his toes that it was the work of those girls from the mercenary group.
"Drip!"
System prompt: Player Phantom requests to establish a call relationship with you. Please accept.
"accept!"
"Hey, how do you feel?" Ma Yingjie raised an evil smile and couldn't help but teasing the phantom.
"Damn, what can she feel? Why is she so fierce? I guarantee she won't be able to get married." The phantom on the other end of the communicator spat, obviously still upset about what happened just now.
"It's all your fault. Tell me how you're going to compensate me. Don't hide the two hundred gold coins you earned. Take them out and have a drink." Phantom thought that it was Ma Yingjie who called him over just now, and he immediately wanted to kill Ma Yingjie to vent his anger. In other words: not for the black gold coins, but just to vent his anger.
"Ahem, let's talk about it later. I'm following Absolute Zero now. Come find me at coordinates xxxx, xxxx." After saying that, he added, "Keep in touch anytime," and then hung up the communicator, leaving the phantom on the other end of the communicator very depressed. He said he wanted to keep in touch, but he hung up. What kind of thing was this?
Absolute Zero didn't notice that someone was following her. She was very upset because she didn't make it to the top five. After replenishing some MP potions at the store, she went to a low-level leveling point outside the city to vent her anger by killing monsters, just like when she feels frustrated in real life, she would find someone to vent her anger on.
With this mood, Absolute Zero came to the leveling point outside Yanhuang City. Lu Hao followed behind him miserably. Fortunately, Absolute Zero did not walk very fast, so Phantom met up with Lu Hao soon. The two mages followed Absolute Zero stealthily and came to a lush forest. If the players knew about it, they would definitely think badly.
But God knows, they really didn't mean that. Pure as Phantom, he just wanted to avenge the bedding, and Ma Yingjie was carrying out the mission for the commission.
System prompt: You have entered the Sunset Forest.
Looking at the short bushes in front of them, which seemed to cover the whole sky, they saw Absolute Zero walk in, and the two followed him in.
The soft ground made a rustling sound as my feet stepped on it. This place was different from the dark creatures that were everywhere outside Dragon City. The monsters here were wild monsters. Their high physical resistance and low magic resistance made this a paradise for mages.
But the mage Lu Hao had only come to this paradise now, which made him regret how much experience he had missed. However, mending the fold after the sheep have been lost was obviously not what Lu Hao did. He would rather go all the way, which can also be understood as a derogatory way to go all the way.
The not-so-tall bushes blocked the sunlight, and walking inside really gave a feeling of dusk. It was indeed worthy of being called the Sunset Forest. However, compared with the dark sky of the Land of the Dead all day long, this place was still dwarfed by the darkness.
I don't know how long they walked, just when Ma Yingjie was getting a little impatient, Absolute Zero finally stopped.
The bushes had disappeared, and in front of us was an open grassland with large brown-haired mammals wandering around.
This woman is too violent. Usually, people use tiger to describe a violent woman. It seems that she is more like a lion than a tiger.
Looking around, I saw several leveling teams nearby. Since the monster levels here are generally not higher than level 20, most of these players are new players who came in after the unlimited distribution of helmets in the past few days.
"Do you want to start now?" Phantom asked Ma Yingjie for his opinion, but judging from his trembling hands due to excitement, he should want to start immediately.
"Wait a minute, don't you think it's strange that she came to the low-level monster area? Let's see what she wants to do first." Although Ma Yingjie understood Phantom's feelings, he was afraid that she would fly away since she was already a done deal.
"Okay!" Phantom thought for a moment and agreed readily. After all, the game had just finished and most of the players had watched it. In this case, if two players who advanced to the top five teamed up to bully a player who was in the top ten, it would not be good for the public.
After walking forward for a while, the lion's silhouette gradually changed. From about one meter when it first came in, to nearly two meters now, the lion's size has increased by half, but its level has not increased. It looks like Absolute Zero used one more spell to kill the monster, and its health has increased a lot. As for experience, the two of them resisted the urge to do it for fear of exposing their whereabouts.
Phantom began to complain quietly: "Do you think the system is crazy? The monsters here are so much stronger than those outside, but they are still at the same level and their appearance has not changed. This is too abnormal. Well, this absolute zero is also abnormal. If a person runs to such a hellhole, he must be insane or constipated."
"Don't doubt the intelligence of the main brain. There must be a reason for this design. We just need to follow Absolute Zero." While speaking, Lu Hao looked around. The player teams were almost invisible. Occasionally, there were one or two leveling teams that were a little overwhelmed and would leave cursing after killing a lion.
The strength of the monsters here is seriously disproportionate to the experience gained. In the eyes of many players, this is just an abandoned map. No player would level up on such a map. No one is willing to do such a thankless task.
"Okay, we can get started." Seeing that they had already gone deep into the hinterland and there was no longer a single player, Ma Yingjie was too lazy to run around with Absolute Zero. He would have to bring her back no matter how far he ran.
But at this moment, a strange thing suddenly happened in front of them. The lion that had been attacking Absolute Zero did not attack Absolute Zero as before, but lay down at her feet with its head lowered and its eyes licked Absolute Zero's paws affectionately.
"Damn, what's going on? Is Absolute Zero a beast tamer?" A strange feeling arose, but then Ma Yingjie shook his head and threw this ridiculous idea behind his mind. This is absolutely impossible. In Blood Cry, you cannot have multiple professions except for the life profession. In other words, Absolute Zero, who is an ice mage, cannot be a beast tamer at the same time.
"I know what's going on. She knows how to tame animals." The phantom next to him suddenly interrupted.
"Beast Taming?" Lu Hao looked at Phantom in confusion, obviously wanting Phantom to explain it in detail. Phantom also explained in detail very tactfully, it turns out that players can learn beast taming from hunters after completing certain tasks. Of course, monsters tamed by beast taming cannot become phantom beasts, but exist as mounts. This is not a big secret, but Lu Hao rarely interacts with people, so he doesn't know it.
Mount. This was the first time that Ma Yingjie heard this familiar term in Blood Cry. Did it mean that he, a weak mage, could use a mount to travel?
