Chapter 205 See the light of day again
Win! Xiao Jie breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, he even had a feeling of surviving a disaster. Just now, for a few moments, he felt that the entire team was on the verge of collapse.
If the front row can't hold on and the zombie king rushes into the crowd and starts killing people, the whole thing will probably collapse.
If that's the case, he can only try his best to see if he can escape by disappearing without a trace.
Fortunately, the regiment commander gave effective command, the soldiers fought bravely, and of course, he, the powerful guest who turned the tide, used his ultimate move and finally won the game.
Others also cheered, and there was a burst of excited cheers in YY.
However, the battle continued. Even though the zombie king was killed, the resurrected zombies continued to crawl up and pounce on the crowd, and there were still a few mining zombies left.
Fortunately, without the threat of the BOSS, everyone reorganized their formation and instantly took control of the situation.
The mining zombies were chopped down and poked one after another. The resurrected zombies could not always get up. Xiao Jie had time to observe carefully at this time, and he clearly found that every time the resurrected zombies got up, their health would be halved. When it was reduced to about 40 health points, they would no longer crawl.
Spinning knife dance!
The double swords swung and slashed, knocking down several resurrected zombies with 40 or 80 health points to the ground. To deal with such defective products, there was no need to use ultimate skills, ordinary combat skills could kill them instantly.
The battle was about to end as most of the zombies were being killed.
A slightly dazzling figure appeared in front of Xiao Jie.
Conviction (Resurrected Zombie): Level 19, HP 400.
It turned out to be the player who was bitten to death by the zombie king!
At this moment, his whole body was blue and black, his eyes were bloodshot, and his mouth was full of fangs. He had been transformed into a zombie, but he still held his spear in his hand and made a low growling sound.
This monster is actually not that threatening, because the transformed zombie cannot inherit the skills it had in life. It is just an ordinary zombie with more than 400 health points.
However, Xiao Jie still took a step back.
"Captain, you handle this."
Qianlong Wuyong didn't say anything, he just went up and killed him with a series of gorgeous combos.
Then he put the body directly into his backpack.
Xiao Jie was slightly stunned. Did he want his teammates to collect the bodies? The problem was that it was useless to collect the bodies in the game... But he didn't say anything.
At this time, the battle was finally over. As several fires were lit in this huge cave, illuminating the surrounding space, every detail of the cave was completely presented to everyone.
While the others were exploring corners, looking for the entrance to the tunnel leading to the next level and keeping alert to ensure safety, Qianlong Wuyong quit the game and opened the QQ group.
He double-clicked a member's avatar and opened a private room.
Qianlong Wuyong: Judgment, how about you? "
Conviction: I'm fine, Captain. Did you win the fight? No one died, right?
Qianlongwuyong: We won, the corpse king has been killed, and everyone is fine.
Conviction: That’s good… I hope everyone is okay.
That line of words seemed to carry some kind of silent silence, which made Qianlong Wuyong feel distressed. Unlike the peripheral member who died a few days ago, he knew Duanzui and they had drunk and sang karaoke together during the guild's team-building.
And unlike the guy who committed suicide, Judgment did nothing wrong. He acted exactly as he was ordered, executed the plan to the letter, held his ground in battle, and did not do anything out of line. Yet, he still died...
Qianlong Wuyong's hands were shaking on the keyboard, not because of fear, but because of guilt.
Was there something wrong with his command? Was it wrong for him to choose to go down to the mine? Perhaps he should have chosen to fight in the Hundred Wolf Cave or Black Wind Mountain... If that was the case, maybe he wouldn't have died.
The chaotic thoughts in his mind made him not know what to say.
In the end, it was Judgment who spoke first.
Conviction: Captain, please take good care of my parents. They won't be able to accept this kind of thing. Just tell them that I'm going abroad. Please send them some money for me. Don't give it all at once, or they will have some ideas. Ten thousand a month will be enough. Just transfer the money in my name, using my pension.
By the way, I will end my life myself in a while, and it won’t cause any trouble for you.
Qianlongwuyong: Sorry.
Conviction: Don’t apologize, Captain. Everyone will die eventually. Even if it’s not me, it will be someone else. Besides, didn’t the President once promise that one day we will all be reborn? If that plan really succeeds, don’t forget to resurrect me.
Qianlong Wuyong: I will never forget it as long as I am alive - even if I die, the president will not forget it, and we will all be reborn in the end.
Conviction: Haha, then I'll just wait for your call down there - I still have some things to take care of, so I won't talk much more. Goodbye, Captain. You're a good captain, and I'm glad to have fought with you. Say goodbye to the president for me. Bye.
After saying the last sentence, the avatar suddenly dimmed.
Qianlong Wuyong heaved a sigh of relief, as if a huge rock had been removed from his chest, but the disappointment and regret in his heart made him feel even more distressed.
It seemed as if it was suffocating him.
(No, it’s okay, as long as the plan succeeds, everyone will survive and everyone will be reborn!) Qianlong Wuyong said loudly to himself deep in his heart.
His eyes immediately became firm and he picked up the phone.
"Hello, President, I need to report something to you. Yes, it's about the aftermath..."
Hey, why didn't the captain move? Xiao Jie looked at Qianlong Wuyong with some curiosity.
He vaguely guessed something, probably something to do with the aftermath.
The core members are probably quite familiar with each other...
He could think of it, but he didn't have much feeling in his heart. After all, no matter whether it was the War Ghost a few days ago or the Judgment today, they were just strangers to him, and teammates at best.
What he was more concerned about at this moment was what the Corpse King had dropped. The combat power of this thing was much stronger than that of the previous bandit leader, so the drops should be better.
I have done my best in this battle today, so I have to score some points.
At this time, Qianlong Wuyong finally moved.
"I've dealt with some things, and it's all done. Come on, let's continue. Good luck, touch the BOSS's body first, and remember to turn on the video.
Group 2 and Group 3, split up and search to see if there are any exits around. This level should not be the bottom of the mine, there must be deeper levels."
Qianlong Wuyong's tone was very relaxed, which made Xiao Jie feel a little depressed.
Xiao Bai whispered, "Captain, we have just scouted this cave and found that it has three exits - two and a half to be exact.
One is a mining tunnel with many mining points and a small number of mining zombies. I think I can occupy it and mine for a long time.
One is a rat hole, and people need to squat to get in. I personally don’t think it is a good idea to explore this road. It would be dangerous if you are attacked by monsters while drilling, and you won’t be able to run away.
There is also a tunnel that looks like a robbery hole, going straight down, and I am not sure where it leads to.”
These three entrances were found by everyone together. Xiao Jie was most concerned about the hole dug by tomb robbers. Generally speaking, the hole dug by tomb robbers must be related to ancient tombs or something. When thinking about the corpse king in the ancient tomb before, it is not difficult to guess that there might be an ancient tomb under this mine.
In this kind of adventure game, the ancient tombs are naturally connected to the equipment secrets, and the things in them must be treasures. Qianlong Wuyong listened, pondered for a moment, and immediately made a decision.
"Let's stop our exploration today. Don't take any more risks. Draw a topographic map of the entire route and study it when we get back. Also, dig up all the mineral deposits in the mine tunnel, and then we'll withdraw."
Deidara couldn't help but say, "Aren't you going to explore the cave? There might be good stuff in there."
"It's too dangerous. We're not in good shape right now. If we run into a bunch of monsters or a boss, it's easy to fail."
"I'll go." Ye Luo suddenly said.
"You?"
"Yes, I have a piece of equipment that can reduce the hatred of undead monsters, and I can become invisible in the dark."
"Are you sure? I don't want anyone else to die today."
"Don't worry, I never joke with my life."
Perhaps it was because Ye Luo's previous Soul Binding Chain had left a deep impression on Qianlong Wuyong, or perhaps it was because of Ye Luo's confident tone, he finally nodded in agreement.
"Go quickly and come back quickly. If you encounter any danger, call for help immediately and we will send someone down to support you. Do you have the magic talisman in your hand?"
"Yes, Captain, you don't have to be so fussy. I can take care of myself."
After saying this, Ye Luo's figure disappeared, as if blending into the darkness, and instantly disappeared from everyone's sight.
Xiao Jie trusts Ye Luo very much.
Qianlong Wuyong said: "Groups seven and eight stay here, and the rest of you can follow me to the mine to dig."
At the command, everyone immediately split into two teams. One team headed towards the mine tunnel on the right. This mine tunnel was obviously the main mine tunnel. It was dug wide and straight, with many supports and reinforcements on both sides. The mine tunnel was full of mining points, and even in the dark, you could see top-quality mining points emitting spiritual light. They should be mining points of some rare ore.
A few mining zombies rushed over immediately after seeing the crowd, and were easily dealt with by the crowd. Then the miners quickly started digging...
At the same time, Xiao Jie was also waiting with his men.
While waiting, I kept in touch with Ye Luo on YY.
"How is it, are there any monsters down there?"
"There are a few big bats. Damn, they can even counter-stealth—don't worry, I've already dealt with it—Eh!"
"what happened?"
"I found a wall, probably a tomb wall - ah, I found the door! Uh oh..."
"What's wrong?" Ye Luo's sudden surprise really made Xiao Jie feel itchy.
However, Ye Luo did not answer.
"Hello! Hello! Hello! Ye Luo, are you still there?" Xiao Jie asked nervously.
“Yes, yes, it’s out.”
As he spoke, Ye Luo's figure appeared again in the air.
"There is an ancient tomb below. There are not many monsters, but the tomb door is sealed. It requires two spirit stone seals to open it."
Lingshi Talisman! Xiao Jie was suddenly surprised and delighted.
The spirit stone talisman was created by ancient immortals and is used as the key to the ancient seal.
This ancient tomb actually has a seal left by an immortal, which means there must be good things inside the tomb.
Of course, it actually requires two spirit stone seals to open it. If there are monsters in the ancient tomb, it may not be simple.
At this time, Qianlong Wuyong also came back with a team, and all the ore was mined.
After hearing Ye Luo's report, Qianlong Wuyong did not hesitate too much.
"This information is very important. Ye Luo, did you turn on the video?"
"I took a few photos of the tomb door with my phone."
"Very good, send it to me later. It seems that this matter needs to be considered carefully. We don't have the spirit stone seal at the moment, and even if we do, I think we can't use it easily. The things behind the door may be extraordinary, and we may need to seek support from the main guild group. Let's retreat first!"
There is no dragging of feet in Qianlongwuyong. Monsters can spawn at any time in this underground cave, and every minute spent there is a torture.
Retreating all the way back to the mining area, Xianyu was still leading people to kill the newly refreshed zombies. When he saw everyone rushing out, he hurried over to meet them.
"What's going on? I heard you guys yelling just now. What happened down there?"
"One died."
"It's okay, it's just one."
After Xianyu finished speaking, he realized that the atmosphere seemed a little off.
Qianlong Wuyong seemed to be in a bad mood. He had been pretending to be relaxed before, but now he couldn't pretend anymore. "Hurry up and retreat. We'll talk about it when we get back up."
When the group evacuated the mine and returned to the ground, looking at the long-lost sunlight, Xiao Jie suddenly felt like he was seeing the light of day again.
No wonder the saying goes "I would rather die than go down into a mine, and I would rather die of hunger than explore a tomb". The underground caves in this game are really too depressing, and are completely incomparable to the dungeons in previous games.
Fortunately, the harvest this time was quite large. Not counting the various ordinary ores, there were more than a dozen pieces of top-quality ores alone, which were worth hundreds of taels of silver.
Not to mention, as long as the land is successfully reclaimed, mining can be carried out permanently in the future, and the long-term benefits will be huge.
And the ancient tomb also has the potential to bring huge benefits in the future.
Of course, the most important thing is the drop from the Lich King.
Generally speaking, players advance in level every ten levels, and the same is true for BOSSes. So even though a level 20 corpse king is only two levels higher than a level 18 bandit leader, the difference is actually one level.
As long as I can get one or two top-quality items, this trip will not be in vain.
Qianlong Wuyong finally adjusted his mood at this time.
"Okay, everyone. Overall, this land reclamation operation was quite successful, although some unexpected events occurred... This type of regional BOSS usually won't refresh again for at least a week, so for a short period of time, the following Mining Area 1 (the mining area) and Mining Area 2 (the main mining tunnel of the Corpse King Cave) will be our guild's main farming areas for the next period of time.
Not only do you have to mine, you also have to kill monsters. As long as you keep it stable, you can greatly improve the level and strength of the members. However, although the zombie king will not refresh in a short time, the number of monsters is still a bit large, so you must ensure that there are enough people every time you go down.
As usual, everyone will share the monsters' drops among themselves, and the ore income will be converted into gold coins and distributed to everyone. In addition, there are the corpse king's drops, but before that, let's calculate the points first..."
