Maybe the power of Rising Dragon Strike was too shocking, or maybe it was because Arrogant Maniac and his three experts were insta-killed, causing the Arrogant players to lose their mental support. Anyways, Arrogant Maniac's carefully planned ambush plan failed just like that. As for why Arrogant Maniac failed, I wasn't sure.
As for why Arrogant Madman failed, I couldn't explain it. Actually, Arrogant Madman's preparations were really good, at least it was much better than before. Also, this kind of Drunk on Blood lineup was really strong. Second Job Advancement Dark Swordsman Seven-Star Lamp, Soul Wizard Faint Rice Flower Fragrance, all of them were top notch characters. The World Defying Gale, Berserk Thunder, and Berserk Sword couldn't be underestimated either.
Unfortunately, this group of people were unable to use their full strength. Maybe, it really was because they weren't united.
At this time, Rain Pavilion and Death Nocturne tactfully left the Illusionary Secret Realm. Uncle Solitary Grave brought his capable general Hellfire to level in the Illusionary Secret Realm. He also promised to help us guard the entrance.
The beautiful Mage threw out a World of Ice and Snow skill. Instantly, a dozen Blooddrink players who wanted to escape were sent back to the city. Ling Yue clapped her hands and walked over with a smile, "Done!"
I praised, "Ling Yue's current damage is really terrifying!"
Ling Yue raised her beautiful face and smiled brightly, "Of course!"
At that moment, Wang Jun Jie, who hadn't done anything all this time, suddenly came over with a dozen other geniuses. He said to Ling Yue in a deep voice: "Ah Yue, we want to return to Xue Yue, can we?
I called Uncle Ling Tian this morning, and he also thinks that you should have a good talk with me. Are you free tomorrow?
Can we meet in a private room in Heaven on Earth and have a good talk? "
Ling Yue's beautiful eyes swept over and she said, "Is there a need?"
Wang Junjie's expression sunk and he said, "Of course there is a need!"
"But what's done cannot be undone. Moreover, I don't want to take it back!"
Ling Yue raised her eyebrows and said bluntly. This time, Ling Yue's decisiveness made me feel good.
Wang Junjie didn't give up and said, "Let's give each other another chance. I really don't want to see you trust some untrustworthy brat. We've been working together for a few months, and you still don't trust my ability?
As long as I return to Snow Moon, I will make Snow Moon the number one Guild in White Cloud City! "
I walked up to him and smiled faintly, "But now, White Cloud City is number one on the Snow Moon, and you, Wang Junjie, haven't achieved anything on the Snow Moon."
Wang Junjie frowned and shouted, "Cut the f * * king crap!
Is this the place for you to talk?
Who do you think you are? You're just a poor brat who relied on Ling Xue to enter Snow Moon. Do you think Ling Xue can protect you for the rest of your life?
Let me tell you, a little girl like Ling Xue will kick you away when she's tired of playing with you. Just wait to live on the streets! "
I raised my eyebrows and shouted, "I am a poor brat, but who do you think you are?"
Ling Xue immediately turned to Wang Junjie and said angrily, "What are you saying?
Idiot!
When did I play with Scholar?
You really can't spit ivory out of a dog's mouth, ptui ptui ptui! "
Wang Junjie sneered, "Ling Xue, you're still too young. When you grow up, you'll understand that this brat isn't worthy of you!"
Ling Yue finally couldn't take it anymore and shouted, "Wang Junjie, that's enough!
Let me tell you the truth, what else do you have other than your fake etiquette?
Just give up. What do you like about me? I'll change it, okay? "
Bing Cha pursed his lips and smiled, "He likes your family business. You can't change it!"
Ling Yue couldn't help but choke. Her face turned cold and she said, "Wang Junjie, take your subordinates and return to the city immediately. After five minutes, if I see a genius here, I'll kill every one of them. I'm a man of my word!"
Wang Junjie sucked in a breath of cold air. Ling Yue didn't look like she was joking.
And so, Wang Junjie looked at me and said disdainfully, "What are you doing this for?
You're just a brat who hasn't graduated from university yet. Do you think you can join the Ling Corporation just because you snuck into Xue Yue Studio?
Stop dreaming! "
I smiled faintly and raised my voice, "I entered Snow Moon for Ling Xue. It's always been like this. Also, I won't use nepotism to get into the Ling Corporation. Even if I want to do something, I'll use my own hands to do it. I'm different from you in this regard!"
Wang Junjie's face turned purple from my words. He said hatefully, "Very good. Take care. Your good days are numbered!"
I froze, "What do you mean?"
"Hmph!
What do I mean? "Wang Junjie looked at me disdainfully and said," You'll know what I mean sooner or later! "
I took a step forward and smiled, "You know what?
Your eyes are really annoying! "
Wang Junjie snorted coldly, "What do you want to do?"
My expression turned cold and I swept my foot. Wang Junjie's knee was immediately hit. With Wang Junjie's Strength, there was no way he could fight against me. In the next moment, Wang Junjie involuntarily knelt in front of me with a "pu tong", his face full of shock and unwillingness!
"Boss!
Boss! "A few players from Heaven's Chosen immediately came over.
I pointed my sword and shouted, "Who dares to come over?!"
After being yelled at by me, no one dared to move even half a step.
After glancing at Wang Junjie, I calmly said, "You don't have to look down on others, because you're already beneath them!
Return to the city. I should have killed you, but the members of Heaven's Chosen are not in the wrong. I don't want them to become enemies with Snow Moon because of you... "
Wang Junjie's complexion paled, but he couldn't do anything about it. The Soul of Swordfire, Ghost Flame, and Judging Sky were watching him like tigers watching their prey. If he made a move, the 1,000-man Guild of Heavenly Geniuses would be annihilated. After all, the Guild of Heavenly Geniuses had been established in a hurry, and the quality of its players was uneven. The highest were Level 77 experts, while the lowest were Level 40 noobs.
Thus, Wang Junjie chose to return to the city with a humiliated expression. He took out a City Return Scroll and crushed it after glaring at me.
Ling Xue walked over and held my arm with a smile. "Hoho ~ ~ Too arrogant!"
I smiled faintly, but I felt a little uneasy in my heart. That's right, I was feeling great right now. I might not be able to bear the consequences of being young and frivolous. Wang Junjie was a sinister person. Maybe something really was going to happen to Snow Moon Studio.
I sighed and said in my heart, No matter what, I will do my best to protect Snow Moon. There are always things worth protecting in one's life...
At this time, Ling Yue smiled. "Scholar was really arrogant just now. This is how a top expert should be!"
Qin Yun walked over and asked, "Do we continue the quest?"
"Yes, continue. Kill 1000 Hell Destroyers!"
Dragon Soul did a count. Snow Moon's losses in the battle just now weren't too high. 87 people were lost in the 500-man party. Basically, every hundred-man party was still intact. So, we continued the quest!
Hence, they continued their quest. From time to time, the five powerhouse teams would push forward. Although the Hell Destroyers were high-leveled, they were still able to defeat them quickly. Meanwhile, the narrow, winding path within the Illusory Secret Land led deeper into the dungeon. As they advanced, they no longer saw any players. With the density of Level 125 monsters, no one would be able to grind here.
The map of the Illusionary Secret Realm wasn't open for a short time. The level of the monsters here was probably enough for players to reach Level 130.
After nearly three hours of hard fighting, the first part of the quest was finally completed.
Ding ~!
System Notice: The first phase of your quest [Tears of the Phantom] has been completed. The next phase of the quest will officially begin. Please enter the Illusionary Barrier and kill 20 Phantom Swordsmen. Collect their remaining gems!
… …
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Dragon Soul said, "The first stage of this nuisance is finally over. Should we enter the Phantom Boundary now?
But I can't see where the Illusionary Barrier is. "
I was also confused. At this time, we had arrived in front of an enormous mountain barrier. There was nothing behind us. It looked like we had entered a hopeless situation.
Ling Xue patted my shoulder and asked, "Idiot, isn't your Star Eyes supposed to be able to see through invisible things?
Let's take a look. Maybe we can find the Illusionary Barrier! "
I was enlightened. I used Eyes of Star and tossed it at the stone barrier in front of me. In the end, something shocking happened. Under the light of Eyes of Star, the stone barrier actually turned into a light teleportation gate that shone with a faint light!
"It's here!"
Bing Lan, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly said. She looked worriedly at me. "Be careful when you go in!
I feel a powerful evil aura guarding this place. In fact, this power makes it hard for me to breathe... "
I nodded and turned to everyone. "Everyone, be careful. Prepare to die!"
Judging Sky raised his battle axe and smiled. "At worst, I'll lose a level. It's worth it to experience a 3200 difficulty quest!"
Everyone laughed heartily. These fellows were really open-minded.
Thus, I took the lead and jumped into the barrier. I felt a strong force pulling me in. In the next moment, my eyes lit up and I saw a completely different scene.
In a valley with green mountains and clear waters, streams gurgled, grass was luxuriant, and strange rocks were beside the stream. From time to time, small animals like deer or rabbits ran through the green grass.
The wind behind me sounded. Bing Lan was standing next to me. She smiled faintly. "I can't actively participate in a battle between humans, so I didn't help you just now..."
I nodded. "Understood."
In reality, that was indeed the case. It was already a little too much for an NPC to help with a quest. If she helped PK, it was the same as not letting others live.
Snow Moon's players entered the barrier one after another. Everyone was shocked by the beautiful scenery inside the barrier canyon. Ling Yue pursed her lips and said, "This place really does feel like Xishuangbanna!"
Ling Xue smiled. "Sister, it's different. Xishuangbanna doesn't have that..."
Ling Xue raised her sword and pointed. As expected, a golden-armored warrior appeared in the forest. He held a shining longsword. It wasn't an NPC, but a monster with a blood-red name!
The faces of these warriors were dark green, and it was obvious that they were not normal humans. The armor on their bodies was covered with large dragon scales. Furthermore, a faintly discernible aura surrounded their bodies, and the faint roar of a dragon could be heard!
"That is, Dragon Armor Technique?"
Ling Xue said in shock. She looked at me and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
Under Star Eyes, the monster's stats appeared in front of everyone — —
Phantom Swordsman (Dark Gold Miniboss)
Level: 130
Attack: 2100 ~ 2450
Defense: 1200
Health: 250000
Skills: [Full Moon Slash], [Dragon Armor], [Wild Charge]
Bonus: Phantom Swordsman was once a Dragon Warrior. After losing their mounts, these Dragon Warriors lost their conscience and followed in the footsteps of Ice Wings — Dragonbone, walking on the path of becoming enemies with humans...
"D * mn, such strong stats and skills!" Dragon Soul was shocked.
Of course, the strength of this Miniboss made me speechless. It was also a Level 130 monster, far surpassing the levels of our players.
At this time, Bing Lan, who was beside me, revealed a shocked expression. Her beautiful face was pale as she muttered, "Heavens!
Is this real?
The elite Dragon Warriors from hundreds of years ago are still alive. Could it be that Dragonbone has always been hidden in the Phantom Barrier? "
I asked in shock, "Wings of Ice Wings — Dragonbone, who is this?"
Bing Lan gripped the Dragon Slaying Sword and said, "He is the leader of the Giant Frost Dragons. He betrayed Longyu several hundred years ago. This evil dragon helped the Hell Army sweep across the northern part of the Spirit of Grief Continent. Feathermoon Kingdom was destroyed by his Frost Dragon Breath. Wings of Ice Wings pursued the peak of power, and now he is ranked fifth among the ten leaders of the Army of Darkness..."
The people behind me paled. Gui Zhi said, "Are we going to encounter one of the ten bosses of Spirit of Grief today?"
I hurriedly calmed them and said, "Don't panic, it's just a guess. It shouldn't be. Otherwise, the difficulty of this quest would be over ten thousand!"
Ling Xue nodded and agreed cleverly. "Yes, yes, we have a high chance of completing 3200!"
I said, "Let's kill 20 Phantom Swordsmen first. I'll lure one over, and we'll kill it together. Don't split up, safety first!"
Then, I raised my hand and fired an Armor Piercing Arrow at a nearby Phantom Swordsman. A wave of golden light rippled out of its body. The Armor Piercing Arrow's attack power was greatly weakened by the Dragon Armor Spell. The swordsman was enraged and immediately rushed over. He swung his sword and a full moon blossomed in front of me!
Crack!
The full moon slashed down, and a huge damage number jumped above my head — 4407!
"Fuck!"
I groaned inside. It was this strong. If it was a critical hit, wouldn't I be one-shot?
The level difference was too great, and as expected, my stats were absolutely suppressed!
Thankfully, Qin Yun had already given me the Resurrection Prophecy effect, so I wasn't in too much danger. However, this mini boss's attack power was so strong that it was unrealistic to let Ling Xue and Bing Cha tank it. I should do it alone!
I swung my Ice Sword at the Phantom Swordsman and ordered, "Mages, archers, fire together and kill it!"
