Chapter 155 Earth Eater's Sorrow, Bone Fire Mission

Chapter 155 Earth Eater's Sorrow, Bone Fire Mission

Chapter 155 Earth Eater's Sorrow, Bone Fire Mission

The original altar.

Based on the guidance feedback, Qi Sheng obtained a set of data.

Since the pet function was launched these days, 22392 pets have been adopted.

Ranked by number of adoptions:

First place: Fat Peach (12594 pieces)
Second place: Guanglingyu (5923 pieces)
Third place: Treasure hunting rat (2594)
Fourth place: Colorful fruit (799 pieces)
Fifth place: Dirty (482)
……

Due to its low price and financial management attributes, Fat Peach has been adopted more times than the other four combined.

In terms of subsequent growth, the growth trend of the number of adoptions of Pangtao continues to expand.

However, the requirement of continuous investment of energy to train pets has deterred many players. Many players prefer to spend their resources on improving their own strength, and are unwilling to allocate part of their energy to train pets in the expectation of subsequent benefits.

Qi Sheng’s next plan is to create the cultivator function and find the second batch of pet templates.

Secondly, he kept a close eye on the war between the Ascending Clan and Shu Yan by directing the perspective of his clone.

This war has changed since the players appeared.

The two tribes were fighting fiercely in the scene, but the player was lurking in the fog surrounding the scene, waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.

With the efforts in these days, the number of Shuyan warriors controlled by controlling the souls outside the field has expanded to 103, and 38 members of the Ascending Clan have been killed by finishing blows, which can be said to be a fruitful harvest.

Especially the Shuyan Warriors.

This kind of free pet with customizable abilities is the dream of countless control players.

The warriors of the two races consume each other's resources, and the players benefit from it.

Through the data feedback of these days, Qi Sheng also discovered that during the battle between the Ascension Clan and Shu Yan, the number of inlays for the controlled soul soared by 127.5%.

This soul, which has always been considered to be of T4 level strength, became a popular soul in the version during the war between the two races.

The popularity only declined slightly after the pet function was launched.

At this time, both the Ascending Clan and Shu Yan noticed the existence of the players.

Looking at the players from the perspective of the two forces, it is obviously impossible to understand the players' behavior.

They lurk in the fog that shrouds the scene, observing the direction of the war with their heads peeked in. Whenever a dying warrior falls near them, they will swarm out and launch a fierce attack until the dying warrior is killed.

Or drag the dying Shuyan warrior away from the scene.

These strange behaviors did not attract the attention of the two tribes at first. They just thought that this tribe was really bold and dared to seize food during the war between the two tribes.

But as the number of players increased, both races realized that something was wrong.

This group of people waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack are even about to bring their chopsticks into the battlefield.

Several waves of attacks have been launched towards the center of the battlefield.

This suicide attack left them puzzled, but more angry.

But the two tribes focused on the other tribe and paid no attention to the disruption caused by this group of ants.

In their eyes, the players cannot affect the direction of the war, they just make them feel uncomfortable.

After these days of observation, Qi Sheng also conducted in-depth investigations into the hundreds of thousands of projection-connected worlds established by Shu Yan, and roughly understood why Shu Yan came to this area.

During his analysis and observation, he discovered that the small world connected to Shu Yan's projection was the immortal cultivation world controlled by the Ascension Clan.

Therefore, there is a high possibility that the interests of the two parties are in conflict.

Shuyan collects the output of ink power in these small worlds through storytellers, literati, and other story spreaders.

The stronger and more mentally intense the reader is, the more ink power he will generate when reading.

But in this process, Shu Yan discovered that there was a problem with the ink power produced by the small world connected by the projection, and high-quality (high ink power output) readers often mysteriously disappeared.

Out of curiosity, it connected through the projection and entered the small world with its consciousness to investigate.

Gradually, I learned the truth behind these small worlds. It turned out that the high-quality readers did not disappear, but were possessed by the ascending people from the upper world.

In fact, Shuyan doesn’t care about readers being possessed by others. If the ascended people who have completed the possession can become loyal readers of the story, then it will not bother to care about the safety of the creatures in the world of immortal cultivation.

But the Ascending Clan who have completed the possession of another body do not read their own stories, which is a big problem in Shuyan's eyes.

Every time a high-quality reader is lost, MoLi’s revenue is reduced.

In order to protect the readers of the small world and to obtain more ink output, Shu Yan was now ready to declare war on the Ascension Clan.

The first step of a war plan is not actually to start a war directly, but a preliminary test.

This was the first battle between the Shuyan Clan and the Feisheng Clan.

If Shu Yan finds in the initial fight that the Ascending Clan's combat power is not something he can contend with, he will most likely quit the book and run away, moving to other regions to start a new book.

After all, this is not the first time Shuyan has cut a book.

The records in the rule book can prove that Shu Yan always cuts off the opponent if he can't win, and never stops.

Except for the first two times when the black tide came and swallowed up his profits from cutting books, he was able to recover most of the profits from cutting books the other two times.

After this initial fight, Shu Yan realized that he was capable of competing against the Ascending Clan.

Thus, the second step of the plan was started, which is the protracted war after the supply of combat power was cut off that is currently underway.

So the seemingly sudden war actually has a logic behind it.

To put it simply, Shuyan stretched out his chopsticks to pick up food from the Feisheng clan's farm, and when he found that there was less food, he prepared to snatch it by force.

This is Qi Sheng’s guess based on the known clues.

But he was too lazy to expend his energy to investigate the truth.

He doesn’t care who wins between the Ascending Clan and Shu Yan. He only cares about how much benefit these two clans can bring to himself and the players.

During this period, Qi Sheng found a post updated on the forum very interesting.

The poster collected players' opinions on known forces through the number of replies and likes in the post, and compiled a list of labels for players' impressions of each force.

The Bliss Clan: A rising star, with an inspiring clan leader who likes to spread happiness, a happiness maker, the Lord of Welfare, offering my power of bliss.

The Black Tide of Terror: a madman obsessed with devouring everything, the strongest AI in the monster world, the force that the earth bully belongs to, a system with numerous arms, terrifying war growth capabilities, can never be killed, and is said to be the strongest force in the monster world.

Fighting Zerg: hungry, hungry, hungry, eat, eat, eat, no reason needed for killing, either fighting or on the way to a fight, the more the fight goes on, more fiercely, more like a killing machine than the Black Tide, an emotionless killer.

Ancient Gods: The mysterious ancient gods never take action, champion fighters are awesome, we are serious about pleasing the ancient gods, when will the ancient gods come to pick me up, the arena is not allowed to close down, the workplace is open by luck and draws lots, and rewards are given according to performance.

Against the Tide Legion: The food is great, the benefits are great, the next round of vacancies for the Against the Tide Legion will be issued soon, there is a hunger training camp, group fights every day, the place where the hardworking group becomes famous, as long as you work hard, you will have full resources.

Mechanical Overlord: It suddenly came and beat us up, brutally plundered our land, and it is a force from the neighboring continent. According to the description in the guide, it seems to be quite powerful.

The Ascending Clan: The owners of the breeding farms, the farmers in the monster world, the Ascending Clan are here to pick up the leeks. Caring for the seedlings starts with sowing resources. After one crop, there is another, endless crop. The champion fighter is defeated.

The Soul Returning Clan: Perfect possession is too disgusting, this kid cannot be kept, fortunately we players can’t possess the body, otherwise it would be too scary, the number one hostile force of the Counter Tide Legion, the ability is too disgusting, it is recommended that the official ban be imposed.

Shu Yan: Dead eunuch, the king of bad endings, the book is cut again, when will the new book be released?, custom warriors are well received, any combat system you want can be created with a snap of the finger, mastering the power of three rules, but sooner or later it will belong to us players.

Through these labels given by players, we can intuitively see the players' attitudes towards various forces.

There are only three forces that players can favor, namely the Against Tide Legion, the Bliss Tribe, and the Ancient God Tribe.

Because these three forces have indeed brought benefits to players, allowing many players to make a fortune.

Especially the Counter Tide Legion, which is the place players most want to go to.

Compared with the benefits given by other forces, the systematic training of the Against Tide Legion uses up all the resources throughout the process, which can be seen from the live broadcast room of the Liver Emperor Group.

The blessing of the rules of the God of War makes countless players yearn for it.

Among these known powerful forces, the ones that received the most negative reviews are the Black Tide and the Soul Returning Clan.

The Black Tide controlled by the Earth Evil Spirit is the only force that has defeated players many times. Even in the resurrection battle, they cannot defeat the Earth Evil Spirit. The terrifying growth rate makes players call for a weakening of the force.

This is also the first force that the player faces in the monster world, and it is also a force that he can never defeat.

The Earthly Evil Spirit is even called the Earthly Bully in the countless encounters with players.

The reason why the Soul Returning Clan received so many negative reviews is that players find this force's ability to possess other people's bodies extremely offensive.

Especially when the members of the Liver Emperor Group were on their way to the second training camp, a four-eyed warrior was killed and possessed by a soul beast. He smiled and called out "brother" to Ghost Eye, which made many players find it hard to accept.

I think this force is too evil and I will definitely wipe them out if I get the chance in the future.

……

Colorful Mist Coast, Oracle Plains.

This is a plain area hidden deep in the forest and shrouded in clouds and mist. There are a large number of cultivated fields that are carefully divided into squares. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathers here. The fields are close to mountains and rivers and are surrounded by lush forests.

With the long-term nourishment of spiritual energy, the fields have shown a tendency to become spiritual fields.

However, this kind of spiritual field is not a rule resource of the domain node, but a natural spiritual field.

The soil in the spiritual field is light green. A kind of spiritual grain that serves as food is planted in the field. It emits a refreshing fragrance and attracts colorful flying insects to dance in the field.

At the end of the field is a quaint village with rows of farmhouses.

The farmhouse is built with a mixture of rocks and loess. After years of baptism, the surface has become mottled. The roof is covered with thick thatch. Although simple, it can shelter from wind and rain and provide a warm harbor for the creatures living here.

In front of each farmhouse, there is a small vegetable garden enclosed by bamboo fences, where various seasonal vegetables are planted, creating an lush green environment.

As the sun sets, smoke from the village rises up and interweaves with the clouds in the woods, creating a warm and peaceful pastoral landscape.

At this time, a team of 52 players was heading towards the area where the spiritual field was located.

"The spiritual wine brewed by the Stone and Earth Tribe is so delicious. It will definitely sell for a high price if it is put on the trading floor. It's a pity that we don't even have enough for ourselves to drink." Thinking that they would soon be able to drink the spiritual wine brewed by the Stone and Earth Tribe again, the captain walking in the front of the team couldn't help but sigh in the voice channel.

"Captain, can we set up an industrial chain? We can use the mall resources to exchange spirit wine with the Stone and Earth Tribe, and then sell it in the trading house. I think it will be a considerable source of income."

Hearing the suggestion from his teammates in the voice channel, Fang Zhi couldn't help but shook his head:

"I've thought about this a long time ago and even asked the Earth Eater tribe leader, but their spiritual wine production is very low and can't supply the consumption of the trading house at all. This kind of business is okay for once, but it won't last long."

As he spoke, Fang Zhi looked up and forward.

Looking through the gaps in the dense forest, the spiritual field ahead is within reach.

This area was discovered accidentally by their team while chasing a fleeing monster.

When they saw a large number of low-level spiritual plants planted in the fields, they were so excited that they prepared to harvest them.

But what surprised Fang Zhi was that a large number of members of the Stone and Earth Tribe suddenly emerged from the village at the end of the spiritual field.

They were frightened at the time and prepared for battle.

But what they didn't expect was that the members of the Earth-Eating Tribe who swarmed in knelt down and kowtowed to them before they even got close. The chief of the Earth-Eating Tribe even expressed his willingness to offer resources and pray to avoid being killed and plundered.

This made Fang Zhi completely lost his idea.

As a player, he can act recklessly in the game, but his principles and values ​​as a human being remain.

This game was so immersive that he could even see a pleading look in the eyes of the old chief of the Earth Eaters.

This delicate expression of emotion was so impactful that Fang Zhi compromised instantly and even felt that he was a piece of shit and how could he have such a stupid idea of ​​plundering.

In response to the request, he immediately told the Earth Eaters chieftain that they would not do anything excessive and that they were just passing through.

Upon learning all this, the Stone and Earth Tribe was obviously relieved, and then welcomed them into the village, entertaining them with homemade spirit wine and various delicacies.

Fang Zhi did not refuse. He took his brothers to have a big meal here and took out a batch of mall supplies for exchange.

In the future, whenever they passed by while hunting nearby, they would come to the village of the Earth-Eaters to have a meal and leave some resources.

We have had many contacts and get along well.

During this period, he also asked the Earth Eater Chief about the situation of their race.

Through the narration of the Earth-Eaters' leader, we learned that the Earth-Eaters lived in seclusion here in order to avoid war as much as possible.

Their arrival can be traced back to hundreds of years ago.

At that time, the Earth-Eaters were a dominant force in a small world. They felt that a wider sky would be more conducive to the development of their race, so the tribe leader at that time led his people to descend into the monster world.

Before his arrival, he even made a vow to lead the tribe, starting from the upper world, towards a more prosperous period of development.

But vows are not reality after all.

They spent huge amounts of resources and manpower to build the space transmission channel.

I thought I could make great achievements in a wider world, until I had initial contact with the creatures in the monster world.

They then realized how terrible this world is, but it was too late to regret.

As soon as they arrived, the Earth-Eating Tribe was surrounded by local forces.

This war nearly led to the extinction of the Earth-Eaters, who eventually hid in this area surrounded by dense forests and barely survived. Less than 5% of the tribe members were left compared to when the descent began.

This battle also made the Earth-Eaters completely give up their ambition to conquer the world.

The remaining members of the tribe have since lived and multiplied here, cutting down trees, reclaiming wasteland, and even built a spirit gathering formation near the area to obtain spiritual energy to nourish the land, making it more fertile.

The difficult days are getting better with the efforts of generation after generation of the tribesmen.

The most important thing is that after negotiating with the strongest force in this area, the "Thorn Clan", the Earth-Eating Clan obtained asylum. From now on, they only need to pay 65% ​​of the spiritual plant production each year to be allowed to settle here, and their safety is guaranteed.

But the good days did not last long, and the Thorn Tribe withdrew from the stage of history and was destroyed.

The newly appeared forces increased the resource collection from 65% of the output to 75%. Basically, there would be a change of management power every hundred years or so.

All the Earth-Eating Tribe can do is survive in the cracks between the various tribes, and prove to the outside world that they have no ambitions by not developing their combat power. They are willing to become slave forces of other forces to cultivate their spiritual fields.

They cultivate their own land and are fully responsible for planting crops. It is this development model of abandoning combat power construction that has allowed the Earth-Eating Tribe to survive safely to this day.

To date, the population of the Earth-Eating Tribe is still less than one thousand.

The deliberate restriction of population size was intended not only to show other nearby forces that the Earth-Eaters had no ambitions, but also to save on resources. After all, the spiritual fields in the territory were limited in size and could no longer be expanded, and it was impossible to support more members of the tribe.

This is also the sorrow of the small tribe.

Without the protection of super powers like the Legion Against the Tide, small tribes are just "food" to be slaughtered and exploited, and they will never have a say anywhere.

Thinking about his worries, Fang Zhi led the team members through the dense forest. When they saw the smoke from cooking in the distance, smiles appeared on their faces, knowing that they could get another meal.

But Fang Zhi soon discovered something was wrong.

All the spiritual plants in the spiritual field ahead had been harvested, and not a single spiritual plant could be found.

The last time he chatted with the Earth-Eater Clan leader, he clearly remembered that the Earth-Eater Clan leader said that this batch of spiritual plants would mature next month, so why were they harvested in advance?

Looking up at the village at the end of the spiritual field, the smoke in the air looked wrong and it didn't seem to be cooking smoke.

"Go over and take a look."

Fang Zhi's face changed and he immediately ran towards the farmhouse area at the end, with his teammates following him.

Entering the village, the lively and bustling scene that should be full of life on ordinary days has completely disappeared. Only the wind is left blowing through the dilapidated open houses, making a whimpering sound like ghosts and wolves howling.

The first thing that catches the eye is the old tree at the entrance of the village. It is still standing with its tangled roots, but under the tree lie several shriveled corpses that have been drained of blood. Their faces are distorted and their eyes are wide open, as if they have witnessed an extremely horrific scene in the last moments of their lives. One of the old men still holds a sickle tightly in his hand, his knuckles are white from the force, and he seems to have resisted before his death.

Walking along the narrow dirt road, most of the farmhouse doors were half-open. At the threshold of one house, a young figure was lying with a child in his arms. The child was tightly nestled in the young figure's arms. The bodies of the man and the child had also been drained of blood.

"Beast!"

"Who the hell did this? It's so vicious to attack a peaceful force."

Seeing this scene, players spoke up in the team voice channel.

Captain Fang Zhi's face was livid as he led the team to the center of the village.

An old man from the Earth-Eater tribe with a look of despair and dull eyes was seen dragging corpses and piling them up in the open space in the center of the village to burn.

The "smoke" they saw was rising from the burning corpses.

Fang Zhi came to a stop in front of the old man from the Earth-Eating Tribe who was dragging the corpse, blocked his way, and asked in a deep voice:

"What's going on here?"

The old man from the Earth-Eating Tribe slowly raised his head and looked at Fang Zhi. He immediately recognized that the other party was the foreign force that had been coming here recently. His eyes regained some clarity, but the despair in them did not dissipate. He explained in a hoarse voice:

"We were invaded, and all our resources were plundered. Even our people became food for the invading forces... and they all died."

As he spoke, the old earth-eater's lips kept trembling, and endless fear remained in his empty eyes.

"Where's the clan leader?"

"Dead." Upon hearing this, Fang Zhi's face turned gloomy.

He then asked the old man from the Earth-Eating Clan in detail about the specific situation at that time.

It was learned that just half a day ago, a group of foreign forces wearing black armor suddenly attacked. The Earth-Eating Chief wanted to pray for peace by offering resources, but the attacking forces ignored his request and slaughtered all the villagers and drained them dry, and also harvested all the spiritual plants in the spiritual fields and took them away.

The old man who was explaining the matter was saved from death by being forced to hide in a food cellar.

After learning the details, Fang Zhi was filled with hatred and asked the old man why he wanted to burn the corpses of his people.

The old man said that in the tradition of the Earth-Eating Tribe, the soul of a tribe member will be confined to the dead body after death, and only by burning it with flames can the soul be sublimated.

The ashes left behind will be made into stone walls and sent to the cemetery. This is their way of commemorating the deceased.

After learning the reason, Fang Zhi couldn't help but sigh:

"Brothers, lend a hand. We met by fate, so let's do our part."

In response to the captain's proposal, the team members agreed and began to search for corpses in the village. They suppressed their grief and dragged them to the open space in the center of the village to burn them.

A few hours later, looking at the blazing flames in the open space, Fang Zhi sighed in his heart.

Although it is a game, seeing such a tragic scene touched me deeply and I even felt a sense of powerlessness.

Turning his head to look at the old man standing aside, whose tears had already dried, Fang Zhi asked:
"what's your plan?"

Upon hearing this, the old man took out a bright and shining gem from his pocket and handed it to Fang Zhi:

"It was to protect this inheritance that the clan leader asked me to hide in the cellar. Now they are all dead. It is meaningless for me to live alone. I want to follow them... If possible, I would like to ask you for a favor. Of course, you can refuse."

"Speak." Fang Zhi did not take the gem, nor did he even start analyzing it.

"My people built a cemetery 16 kilometers north of here. That is also the place where our ancestors first came to the monster world. I ask you to send the stone wall made from the cremation of my people to the cemetery for burial."

"What about you?"

The old man from the Earth-Eating Tribe shook his head, looked at the flames still burning in front of him, and muttered to himself.

Fang Zhi wanted to say something to comfort her, but he didn't know what to say. He felt that the words that it was better to live than to die were pale and powerless. In the end, he could only nod and say:

"Okay, we promise you."

"Thank you." The old man stood up and stuffed the bright gem in his hand into Fang Zhi's hand:
"In fact, I have long expected this day to come. In this world, being weak is a sin. I will leave this inherited treasure to you."

As he said this, the old man seemed to have made some kind of decision.

After a while, the flames went out.

The old man from the Earth-Eating Tribe stood in front of the pile of ashes, his blood and energy burning, turning him into a fire man.

The surrounding ashes gathered towards it under the control of the old man of the Earth-Eating Clan, and finally merged with his body to form a stone slab nearly ten meters high.

While sighing in his heart, Fang Zhi looked down at the dazzling gem in his hand.

【Eating Earth Gold】:
Item Quality: 49
Item introduction: This spiritual combination was created by the Earth-Eaters over several generations. It records a large amount of historical information and technical data of the Earth-Eaters. It can be used to forge weapons and equipment, or to offer sacrifices to the Emperor.

……

49 quality materials are already very high.

The highest quality necklace that players can currently come into contact with is the one worn by the hard-working brother "Tongzi" in the group, which has a quality of 285.

The quality of weapons and equipment commonly used by players is around 20.

This 49-quality item can gain more than points of sacrificial power after sacrificing it to Emperor's Omen.

While sighing in his heart, Fang Zhi put the gem into his space bag and decided to lead his teammates to complete the commission given by the old man of the Earth-Eating Clan before he left.

Looking up at the stone slab, it was obvious that the size of this thing could not be stored in the space bag.

"Captain, there is a resource truck in the village that was used by the Earth Eaters to deliver resources to nearby forces. Why don't we use that to transport them over?" A player in the team channel suggested.

"Okay, since you promised, you have to do it. Bring the resource truck."

Not long after, teammates arrived pushing a resource cart specially used to carry spiritual plants. A group of players worked together to lay the stone slabs on the cart and escorted the stone slabs in the direction pointed by the old man.

Before leaving the Lingtian District, Fang Zhi looked back at the village and couldn't help but sigh again:

"I found that these tribes that descended into the monster world all have one characteristic. They always think that a higher platform will allow their tribe to flourish. This is true for the Skyfire Dharma King and the Earth Eaters."

Hearing the captain's words, the player standing next to him and wearing a straw hat also sighed:

"Captain, I have asked for guidance on your question. In fact, they are all right. They just want the tribe to have better development. However, they cannot see the risks of higher platforms. They always think that their position in the small world is the truth of their strength, which is enough to get better development in the higher world."

"It's like a deaf person thinking that everyone dancing to the music is crazy. They can't see the unknown truth, or rather, they think that everything they see in their narrow vision is the truth, and they firmly believe that they are not wrong. This information gap has led to the demise of forces such as the Skyfire Clan and the Earth-Eating Clan."

"Some of them may be able to rise from obscurity in the monster world and grow into overlords, but the vast majority of them become nutrients for the growth of other forces."

The team members were depressed when they thought about how the once bustling village was wiped out overnight.

But they did not forget the old man's entrustment and headed north with the stone slabs.

Half an hour later, the team walked out of the dense forest with lush green vegetation along the winding and rugged path. There was a relatively open section of road ahead, making it easier to push the cart forward.

Just as the player team arrived at the center of the area, suddenly countless figures in heavy armor attacked from all directions.

Noticing something was wrong, Captain Fang Zhi immediately spoke up:

"Get ready for battle!"

After he finished speaking, strong energy seeped out from his pores and covered his body surface.

Then a gorgeous little bird emerged from the void, chirped, flew up into the sky, and circled around the team.

Looking up at the attacking figures, the figure leading them was tall and strong, like a moving black mountain.

The parsing capability is turned on at this time.

【Evil Nine】:
Hunting Level: 54
Target Analysis: The "Evil Armor" warriors who recently descended on the monster world are gaseous life forms. They fight by attaching themselves to armor and feed on the blood of other creatures, absorbing it to grow.

……

After seeing the analysis information, I thought about what the old man said.

Fang Zhi was certain that the ones who massacred the village were the newly arrived members of the Evil Armor Clan.

I couldn't see their faces through the black armor, I could only see their eyes glowing red.

Each piece of black armor seemed to be cast from shadows, glowing with a cold luster in the sun. The shoulder armor was as broad as wings, engraved with golden stripes. The sharp horns of the armor were like devil's claws, stretching outward ostentatiously. The breastplate was thick and solid, with a golden ferocious beast inlaid on it.

Behind the leading Evil Armor warrior followed a group of warriors also wearing black armor.

Some warriors have sharp bone spikes on their helmets, looking as hideous as thorns; some warriors have ferocious animal faces carved on their arm armors... Although the black armors of these warriors have slight differences, they all exude a gloomy aura.

They were like a black wave, surrounding us from all directions.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the team immediately realized that they were being hunted.

"Brothers, come to life."

As the captain, Fang Zhi took a step forward, and the energy under his feet turned into ripples and spread out.

Upon hearing this, the other team members also took action.

Players with combat pets summoned their pets immediately, magic players raised magic towers on the spot, auxiliary players prepared light shields, and stone players walked in the outermost circle of the team... They were all veteran players, and the team members knew clearly their positions in the battle.

No nonsense, the battle is about to begin.

As the captain, Fang Zhiyi was like a violent warrior. He took the initiative to rush towards the evil armor warriors and punched Ejiu, who was 7 levels higher than him.

The petrification ability was activated at this moment, and the body surface was instantly covered with a layer of black.

boom!
The fist collided with the serrated knife that Ejiu pulled out from behind. Fang Zhidi in petrified form was as strong as a mountain, and his legs seemed to have taken root in the ground. Instead, Ejiu was knocked back by this punch, and his eyes under the helmet flashed red.

At this time, Fang Zhi released his petrified form and decisively started taunting.

Suddenly, the memories in the minds of the surrounding Evil Armor warriors were automatically pieced together, and endless anger rose from the bottom of their hearts. Fang Zhi's face looked so hateful in their eyes, and the surging emotions controlled them to attack Fang Zhi.

A bloodthirsty mark appeared on Fang Zhi's head, and he turned into a petrified form again.

After enduring multiple blows from weapons, a green fluorescent light fell from the sky and connected with Fang Zhi.

The healing light of Guang Lingyu arrived and began to restore Fang Zhi's health.

The other players also took action at this time, launching a defensive counterattack around the escorted stone slab.

"Brothers, hold on. We must not let the stone slab be destroyed. We have received the commission for the mission, so we must do it."

Fang Zhi shouted in the voice channel, and then turned on the taunt again, attracting the gradually recovering evil armored warrior to fight around him.

The other stone statue players attack from the outer circle of the team, forcibly attracting the evil armor warriors by taunting the souls and protecting the central players.

Ink flames, magic towers, thunder...all kinds of magic output characteristics also hit the evil armor warriors at this time.

But in terms of numbers, they were at an absolute disadvantage.

"Guide, how many of them are there?" Fang Zhi asked.

【278. 】

"grass!"

After learning the exact number of people, Fang Zhi suddenly felt something was wrong, and then shouted in the voice channel:

"Everyone, don't save your medicine. We need to fight a protracted war with them and hold on... Ah Le, call all the guild brothers to help. Try to hold on for a while longer."

"Captain, I have already contacted the boss."

With the protection of four Stone Statue players and the light shield defense released from time to time by the auxiliary players, the team withstood the pressure and prevented the Evil Armor Clan from breaking through.

But as their energy and health were depleted, the team players gradually became exhausted.

On the Black Armor Clan's side, Evil Nine successfully broke free from the taunting suppression and quickly retreated, out of the range of taunting. His red eyes suddenly looked at the stone slab in the center that was protected by the players.

It found that this group of creatures seemed to attach great importance to the stone slab in the center.

Realizing that it could not break through from the outside, it immediately came up with an idea, and a hoarse voice rang out:

"The stone slab seems to be their weakness. Three groups will burrow underground to attack the stone slab and look for a chance to kill them."

As soon as the words fell, a group of evil armored people in the back burrowed into the ground.
These words were translated and rang in the ears of the players, causing the expressions of the team members to change suddenly.

"Warriors, take the lead. The stone statues follow me into the inner circle for protection." Fang Zhi roared at this time.

The four stone statue players in the team retreated decisively, and the warrior player took the initiative to take over.

As soon as they reached the inner circle, the ground loosened and several figures broke out of the ground, slashing directly at the stone slabs with weapons in their hands.

In critical moments, three light shields are generated around the stone slab.

The weapon in the evil-armored warrior's hand smashed into the light shield, splashing countless golden spots of light.

At this time, several more warriors with evil armor broke out of the ground, and the serrated knives in their hands turned into phantoms, slashing at the magic players one after another.

Two magic players were instantly beaten and turned into black mist and dissipated.

Under attack from both inside and outside, the team's camp was immediately dispersed.

Ejiu was very clever and let his people choose to fight around the stone slab. He found that as long as he feinted an attack on the stone slab, these creatures would fight to the death to protect it, and it was easy to find a breakthrough point.

This proved that its guess was correct. This seemingly ordinary stone slab was the weakness of this group of creatures.

This style of play made the players unable to help but curse.

Normally they fought recklessly, but this time there was a real flaw.

After all, I have received the inherited treasure, and the next task is to transport the urn wall.

Although there would be no loss if the mission failed, and the inherited treasure had already been put into the space bag, I still couldn't live with it in my conscience.

This group of dead Earth-Eating Tribe members had treated them warmly. Just as the captain had said, their meeting was ultimately a matter of fate.

But at this moment they were facing siege from the Evil Armor Clan, and they were unable to resist with their fighting power alone.

Under the continuous attacks of the Evil Armor Clan, the team's members continued to decrease, and in the end only four Stone Statue players were left alive.

Even the light spirit feather in the sky was killed by the evil armored warrior using some kind of long-range attack weapon.

The remaining three stone statue players, led by team leader Fang Zhi, continued to release taunts around the stone slab and persisted with gritted teeth.

"Captain, I can't hold on any longer."

The voice channel was filled with the shouts of team members. Fang Zhi turned his head and saw a player next to him losing his petrified form. He was immediately targeted by the intensive attack and turned into black mist and dissipated.

"Fuck you!" Fang Zhi's eyes turned red and he started taunting again to attract more firepower.

But persistence at this time is undoubtedly futile.

Soon the other two members of the Stone Statue Team also turned into black smoke and disappeared.

As Fang Zhi's eyes turned red with anger, the stone slab was smashed into pieces by Ejiu with one blow, and the debris flew everywhere.

Fang Zhi, whose energy and blood were exhausted, also shed his petrified form at this time. Under the intensive attack, the scene in front of him gradually dimmed.

After killing Fang Zhi and the others, Evil Nine squatted down and picked up a piece of rubble:
"Ordinary material, worthless."

In fact, their original target was not the protected stone slab, but to devour the blood and energy in the bodies of these creatures.

However, after they die, they turn into black mist and dissipate, and are unable to absorb any blood or energy at all.

"The next target." Ejiu said in a deep voice at this time.

Soon, the members of the Evil Armor Clan evacuated, leaving only rubble on the ground that was blown away by the wind.

But what the Evil Armor Clan didn't know was what kind of existence they were provoking.

Just as Ejiu guessed, the ash slab was the weakness of the player team in this escort.

But now, the flaw is gone.

……

A few minutes later, a post asking for help was posted on the forum.

The post describes in detail the first time the team led by Fang Zhi encountered the Earth-Eating Tribe and were warmly received, and how the Earth-Eating Tribe was subsequently massacred by the Evil-Armored Tribe, and how the team that posted the message was assigned the mission to escort the urns but was attacked by the Evil-Armored Tribe on the way.

The popularity of the post continued to rise, and after watching the video clips in the post, many players were defeated.

The first half of the scene is very heartwarming. The team of players and the Earth-Eaters are drinking and chatting happily at the entrance of the village. During the period, the Earth-Eaters take out various delicious spiritual foods to entertain the player team, and the player team also leaves mall resources.

Every time we came after that, the members of the Earth-Eating Tribe greeted us with a smile and gave us a warm welcome.

But the second half of the video is chilling.

The village turned into a sea of ​​fire with billowing black smoke.

The members of the Earth-Eating Tribe who were still grinning in the video the previous second, fell all over the village in the next second, with bloodstains winding on the ground. Many broken houses were crumbling, and the surviving old men were struggling to survive under the shadow of death, with despair on their faces.

The vitality and liveliness of the past have vanished like a dream bubble, leaving only suffocating misery.

After understanding the whole process, the forum players who read the post were so angry that they cursed in the post.

When Fang Zhi was resurrected, a large number of players were already waiting at the resurrection point, and they all said:
"Brother, take me with you on this expedition. We players have always bullied others, so it is not right for others to bully us. Start a war group and bring me into the team."

"What kind villagers were slaughtered like this. I almost cried when I saw the video. Add me in."

"Brother, start the battle quickly. I will kill this evil armor tribe. They are simply going against the Tiangang. Have you ever found out who is the boss of the Colorful Mist Coast area?"

"I was about to log off, but after reading this post, I was so angry that I was shaking all over. Add me to the revenge operation, I'll use my light shield to smash the evil armored dog to death."

……

Looking at the densely packed and indignant group of players in front of him, Fang Zhi was moved.

Then they decisively formed a group and pulled nearby players into the battle in batches.

The guild leader also arrived at this time with hundreds of players and joined the group.

After leaving the colorful mist space, thousands of players headed towards the place where they were attacked.

During this period, players kept chatting privately, wanting to join the team.

Several presidents of large guilds even contacted us and said they would come with their guild members to provide support soon.

As more and more players join, the size of the regiment continues to expand.

The players who joined the battle group were all holding back a fire in their hearts, vowing to destroy the Evil Armor Clan.
