"What quest are you guys doing up there?" The Golden Phoenix asked after introducing Chen Mo to Little Witch.
"We're looking for an NPC for her." Chen Mo pointed at June Rain.
"Looking for an NPC?
Heh, I'm also looking for someone. Why don't we go together? We'll have a companion on the way. "The Golden Phoenix sneered after being stunned.
"Who offended you?" Chen Mo saw the killing intent in the Golden Phoenix's sneer.
"Offending me is one thing, but there's a guy who dared to kill Little Witch and run to the top of the labyrinth. I'll find him even if I have to search the entire labyrinth!"
"Forget it, I didn't drop any equipment." Little Witch tugged at the corner of the Golden Phoenix's shirt.
"No!
That guy even killed such a cute Little Witch. He's inhumane!
I'll punish him on behalf of the moon! "The Golden Phoenix said righteously.
Chen Mo rolled his eyes. He knew that the Golden Phoenix's reason was pure nonsense. She just wanted to avenge Little Witch.
"Stop talking nonsense. Join the party and let's go." Chen Mo sent a party request to the Golden Phoenix and Little Witch.
He knew that the Golden Phoenix definitely didn't want to use his power to avenge Little Witch. With the Golden Phoenix's personality, even if he wanted to avenge that player, she would probably be willing.
June Rain politely greeted the two of them, then the four of them set off to the top of the labyrinth.
Although the undeveloped Giant Wood Labyrinth was called a labyrinth by players, it was not a real labyrinth. It was just that the passages here were tangled and complicated. It was easy for newcomers to get lost. After coming here a few times, they wouldn't get lost again.
June Rain had been here a few times for her quest, so she knew the directions and wouldn't walk into a dead end.
The only obstacles on the way were the ape monsters in the narrow passages.
However, Chen Mo, the Golden Phoenix, and Little Witch's equipment was not bad. June Rain was also a Cleric. As long as Chen Mo summoned a Mutated Slime to block in front, no matter how many ape monsters came, they would be able to kill them.
Elia and the guy who killed Little Witch had not been found yet, but their experience points had increased by a lot.
System Notification: You've received a drop of Cursed Blood!
Along the way, a system notification would occasionally ring out. Chen Mo had obtained quite a few drops of Cursed Blood.
By killing monsters in unexplored areas, there was a chance of obtaining Cursed Blood.
The Cursed Blood was a drop of dark red blood. It was a quest item and could not be traded or discarded. It would disappear 24 hours a day.
Logically speaking, the drop rate of Cursed Blood was not high, but Chen Mo was surprised. After killing monsters, his chances of obtaining Cursed Blood seemed to be much higher than others.
The Golden Phoenix and Little Demon had only obtained two drops of Cursed Blood, but Chen Mo had obtained a total of seven drops.
After careful observation, Chen Mo discovered that much of the Cursed Blood was obtained through his other mutated talent, Plunder.
After arriving at the City of Shadows, Chen Mo had killed very few monsters. He had only killed a few Black Flower Demons. When he killed the Black Fox Demons, the Mutated Plunder skill did not trigger at all. It seemed that the entry-level Plunder skill significantly increased the chances of obtaining quest items.
"There's an NPC."
Walking into a wooden hall, Chen Mo killed an ape that was running towards him. He then saw a skinny old NPC.
"I asked that NPC, but he said he had never seen Elia before." June Rain shook her head.
"The NPC's words might not be true. Little Devil, go and see if he's telling the truth or not!" The Golden Phoenix smiled gently.
"What's the difference?" Chen Mo asked curiously.
Back in the Hell Mode Talent Trial, the Golden Phoenix was so sure that Mokir was the Dungeon Guardian. He guessed that she had some special means.
The Golden Phoenix did not hide anything and had Little Devil show him an item.
Lie Detector Coin: Spend 1 Gold Coin to determine if the NPC is telling the truth or not.
This item can only be used three times a day, and it can only be used three times on each NPC.
What an amazing item!
It was Chen Mo's first time seeing the Lie Detector Coin. He could not help but be amazed. June Rain also widened her eyes.
"Spend 10 Gold Coins to increase the chances to 70%. 100 Gold Coins to 90%!" The Golden Phoenix explained.
Damn, why are there so many rich people in this world?!
Chen Mo was speechless. Previously, there was a person who spent 100,000 USD to ask him to help a stranger with a quest. Now, there was a beauty who spent a lot of Gold Coins to test if the NPC could talk.
After asking June Rain the name of the NPC she was looking for, Little Devil took the lead and walked over. "Old man, have you seen a girl called Elia pass by here?"
"No," the skinny old NPC replied calmly.
June Rain looked at Little Devil nervously. Little Devil had already used the Lie Detector Coin.
"He's lying." Little Devil looked at the system notification he received.
They did not know why the old NPC was talking. They circled around him for a while, but they could not trigger any events. They could only give up. However, there was finally news about Elia. This made Chen Mo and June Rain's spirits rise.
The four of them continued forward.
"Die!" They arrived at another wooden hall. Suddenly, an angry roar came from the front.
Someone was PKing!
The Golden Phoenix's gaze turned cold. Her figure suddenly flashed forward. Little Devil, Chen Mo, and the other two immediately followed.
Their field of vision suddenly widened. In the hall, five players had already fallen. Only a thick-skinned Shield Specialist and an elegant Assassin were left fighting fiercely.
"Sister Phoenix, it's him!
The Assassin called Ghost Song! "Little Devil took a look and recognized this Assassin. He was the one who killed her!
Ghost Song's figure was thin. He wore black leather armor and his appearance was very ordinary. If he was placed in a crowd, those who did not know him would definitely not notice him.
When he saw Chen Mo and the other three appear, Ghost Song glanced at them indifferently. He was still dealing with the Shield Specialist calmly, as if waiting for his skills to cool down.
"Hmph!" The Golden Phoenix snorted coldly and raised the giant golden bow in her hand!
She was an Archer who had learned the "Strong Bow" talent. The giant bow in her hand was a Purple Quality weapon!
This was already the upper floor. The wooden hall was not wide. The Golden Phoenix was less than 30 meters away from Ghost Song. With the Strong Bow talent, the speed of the Dark Iron Arrow shot by the Golden Phoenix was astonishing. With the players' current attributes, it was impossible to dodge!
The black iron arrow whizzed over and almost instantly reached Ghost Song. However, Ghost Song calmly took a step to the side. The shield bearers beside him rushed over in an instant, as if to help him block the arrow!
Bang!
-420!
With one arrow, the Shield Specialist, who did not have much HP, was killed by the Golden Phoenix's arrow!
They had encountered an expert!
Chen Mo's pupils shrank. He knew that this seemingly coincidental moment contained too many things!
"Let's see where you can run to!" The Golden Phoenix Archer moved again and shot a Homing Arrow.
At this distance, it was impossible to dodge the Homing Arrow!
However, Chen Mo knew that the Golden Phoenix's arrow would not have any effect!
As expected, Ghost Song moved his feet and quietly disappeared!
Stealth!
"Be careful!" Chen Mo shouted.
Other players would use Stealth to escape, but Chen Mo knew that this Assassin named Ghost Song was definitely coming for them!
With a move of his hand, Chen Mo quickly set up two traps and threw them aside.
At the same time, Chen Mo raised his crossbow and shot an arrow at an empty spot.
The arrow missed. Chen Mo ignored it and shot another arrow.
"Little Witch, Phoenix, attack according to the coordinates I give you!" Chen Mo shouted in the party channel.
"Okay!" The Golden Phoenix knew what Chen Mo meant and immediately nodded in agreement.
Chen Mo said two coordinates in a row and asked the two of them to attack. The two of them attacked, but like Chen Mo, their attacks missed.
Boom!
In front of Chen Mo, a trap suddenly exploded!
Ghost Song stepped on the trap, but the trap exploded and there was no one around!
Ghost Song had used some unknown method to deliberately trigger Chen Mo's trap and then escaped unscathed!
However, what Ghost Song did not expect was that when the trap exploded, the trap next to it also exploded. After the trap exploded, there was a shockwave!
Shockwave trap!
"Kill!" Chen Mo shouted!
Ghost Song was repelled and his Stealth was broken. The Golden Phoenix and Little Witch focused their attacks on him!
With Chen Mo's attack, Ghost Song would lose at least half of his Health Points after being hit by the three of them. Without Stealth, there was no way he could escape from the Golden Phoenix and Little Witch!
"Very good, I'll remember you!"
Ghost Song glanced at Chen Mo, knowing that he had been careless this time.
After that, he used the momentum of the shockwave to retreat quickly.
Chen Mo's crossbow only had a range of 12 meters. In the end, it did not hit Ghost Song. The Golden Phoenix's attack was a little later than Chen Mo's, but it was very fast. Ghost Song could not dodge the arrow.
Bang!
A damage value of over 300 appeared above his head. However, Chen Mo was shocked to discover that Ghost Song had been hit by the Golden Phoenix's arrow and was knocked back another three meters. Then, before the Lesser Demon's attack could reach him, he took a step forward and jumped down from the edge of the giant wooden hall!
After three attacks, Ghost Song was only hit by the Golden Phoenix in the end!
More importantly, he escaped from the hall!
Chen Mo did not think that Ghost Song would die after jumping down!
…
First Night.
Sorry, I went out at nine in the morning and only came back at five. I'm so hungry that my ears are ringing.
I still have to go out at night, so the second night watch will be late.
