Chapter 401: Sinkhole of the Dead (2-in-1)
After the battle, Bai Xiaowen collected a batch of drowning bones and nether grass in an attempt to strengthen the necromantic camouflage on his body.
A drowning bone and a bunch of Nether Grass were thrown into the necromantic disguise in pairs, and naturally a gloomy energy spread, enveloping the two materials and slowly devouring them.
Bai Xiaowen could feel that the thickness of the necromantic camouflage on his body was slowly increasing.
By the time all the drowning bones collected on the Yin Wind Gang had been strengthened, the necromantic camouflage on Bai Xiaowen's body had changed from the initial shabby robe to a large cloak without a hood.
[Necromantic Camouflage (Intermediate): When in the Ghost Mist Zone, it protects you from the effects of Yin Qi and gives you +10% recovery speed. 】
"It turns out that the mid-level necromantic disguise can also add a buff status. Although the effect of this buff state is average, it is just right for me to use the physical exertion of the Kusanagi Stream Ancient Martial Arts," Bai Xiaowen thought, "If it is a high-level necromantic disguise, the buff effect will definitely be more powerful." ”
However, upgrading the Necromantic Camouflage requires two materials, Drowning Bone and Nether Grass.
The drowning bones are just that, after being brought out of the Necromantic Lake space, the resentment contained in it will dissipate, and it has no value. However, the Netherworld Grass is a real spiritual medicinal material, which can be brought out of the Necromantic Lake space and stored for a long time, and has a good trading value.
Therefore, Bai Xiaowen needs to make a trade-off in this regard, whether to consume the Nether Grass and upgrade a more advanced necromantic disguise, or keep the Nether Grass and take it out for sale.
Bai Xiaowen closed his eyes, and through the relationship of the team, he sensed Li Shuyi's position.
Compared with the first induction, the distance between Li Shuyi and him is a little closer, but the induction is still vague, which means that the distance between the two is still relatively far.
Bai Xiaowen unfolded the map of the Necronomicon Lake. He is now located in the southeast area of the Necronomicon Lake, the Yin Wind Gang of the Nether Rift, while Li Shuyi should be located in the northeast area of the Necrogenon Lake.
If the two want to converge, they will have to cross the central area of the Lake of the Dead - the Sinkhole of the Dead.
Originally, Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi had feelings for each other and should be the first batch of awakened people to complete the convergence, but the initial coordinates of the two were too far apart, making it difficult to converge.
"In that case...... It's better to converge at the entrance to the Sinkhole of the Dead. Unfortunately, the squad's storage space is tied to me, and I can't pass through the storage space to pass through the information. However, Shuyi and I should have such a tacit understanding. ”
The team's public storage space is bound to Bai Xiaowen. Other team members, if they want to watch or take the items in the storage space, they must be within three meters of Bai Xiaowen's side.
Without this restriction, Bai Xiaowen could write a note in advance and put it in the public storage space, and Li Shuyi would take out the note from the public storage space to read, and then realize long-distance and even cross-plane intelligence exchange.
Bai Xiaowen put away this unrealistic idea, left the Yin Wind Gang, walked out of the Netherworld Rift, and headed straight towards the central region of the Necronomicon Lake, the Undead Heavenly Pit.
The Sinkhole of the Dead is a huge crater with a depth of hundreds of meters and an area of tens of square kilometers. In the sinkhole, a thick layer of ghost fog was deposited.
This is the central area of the Lake of the Necrons, which is more dense than the ghost fog on the periphery. Even if you are an awakened person, after entering the sinkhole of the dead, your field of vision will be compressed to within ten meters.
The walls of the sinkhole are all steep cliffs. There is only a narrow mountain road, along the wall of the sinkhole, like a circular staircase, detouring down one by one.
The entrance to the mountain road is located on the east side of the sinkhole. There's only one way to enter the Sinkhole of the Dead - unless you can fly.
According to the data, the sinkhole of the dead is covered with damp silt and a thick white ghost fog. Therefore, inside the sinkhole of the undead, there is another name, called the Pale Mire.
In the pale mire, there are a large number of mire hydras, some of which have mutated under the erosion of the ghost fog in their juvenile stage, and have become ghost hydras, just like the giant crocodile of the dead river has mutated into a nightmare.
Bai Xiaowen's mission on this trip is to collect the eyeballs of the ghost hydra, which is Yan Xiaoxin's commission.
After a few hours of advancement, Bai Xiaowen came to the central region. He walked around the sinkhole of the dead, searched for a while, and finally found the entrance ramp of the sinkhole.
At this time, there were only a few awakened people on the entrance ramp, and they came to the entrance of the sinkhole of the dead one step ahead of time, and did not choose to enter, obviously waiting for someone. Once in the sinkhole, in the thick ghost fog, it is not so easy to converge.
Bai Xiaowen didn't rush in. He was quite mentally exhausted after the great battle of Yinfeng Gang and the non-stop rush behind him. In addition, Li Shuyi hasn't arrived yet, so it's better to take advantage of this time to take a good rest, study the skills of the two newly obtained elite summoned creatures, and think about the problem of tactical coordination.
However, among the several awakened people seen at the entrance of the Sinkhole of the Undead, Bai Xiaowen unexpectedly found that one of them was a little familiar, and the person looked at Bai Xiaowen's gaze and was a little dodgy.
Bai Xiaowen quickly remembered that this familiar person was called Ruan Chong, a student of Jiangnan University, and he had also seen it in the Great Rift Valley of Broken Ridge Mountain.
At that time, Ruan Chong and several people from Jiangnan University, in order to compete for the drop treasure chest of the leader of the blood-patterned land dragon, also used the method of first touching the porcelain and then counterattacking to besiege Li Shuyi. Although the strength is not very good, there are a lot of bad intentions.
Ruan Chong was panicked when he saw Bai Xiaowen, he was afraid that Bai Xiaowen would not care about thirty-seven twenty-one, and he would rush up and beat him violently and drive him out of the Necronomicon Lake space.
However, Bai Xiaowen just glanced at him, and then withdrew his gaze, closed his eyes and recuperated, and did not move.
Ruan Chong breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart was mixed, with both the luck of escaping and an inexplicable sense of loss. He understood that Bai Xiaowen didn't make a move, but he just felt that he Ruan Chong was not a threat, and ignored it like air......
Gradually, the awakened people at the entrance of the sinkhole of the dead gathered more and more, such as Wang Jin, Geng Chen and other school captains who knew him, also appeared.
However, this time the exploration of the treasure space of the Necronomicon Lake has attracted more colleges and universities than the last time, Wannan University and Shandong University are all first-class key strong schools, and there are more than five heroes alone, and elite level 6 masters like Wang Jin and Geng Chen are no longer the top.
The eyes of the awakened people from all sides are more focused on heroic professions like Bai Xiaowen, and every appearance of a strong hero profession will cause a low discussion, and everyone is gossiping about who is more powerful in these heroic professions.
Duanmu Cheng from Wannan University looks quite sunny and handsome in a white sportswear.
Bao Yiming from Shandong University is a powerful fat man, or a fat strong man, with chest muscles bigger than a girl, and the flesh on his face trembles slightly when he takes a step.
and Bai Xiaowen's old acquaintance Qi Ruifeng also appeared, he seemed to have walked out of the shadow of the last defeat, saw Bai Xiaowen, and showed a calm smile, nodding slightly.
Bai Xiaowen also nodded in response, Qi Ruifeng was broad-minded, as a victor, of course, he would not be petty.
"Qi Ruifeng, the strongest person in the Jianghai Division, is here. I don't know which one is stronger than the No.1 Duanmu City in our Lujiang Division. "There are awakened people secretly talking.
"Your news is outdated, Qi Ruifeng is not the strongest person for a long time. In the qualifying match of the Jianghai Division, he lost to Bai Xiaowen, the ace of Jinghai University, and the entire Jianghai Division knew that "there are awakened people from colleges ......and universities in the Jianghai Division who secretly spread the news."
"Really, who is Bai Xiaowen, haven't heard of it......"
"Hey, your village has just been connected to the Internet, and I don't even know ...... top student in the college entrance examination."
These discussions are very low, but the hearing of the awakened is beyond that of ordinary people, especially the spiritual specialty type like Qi Ruifeng. His smiling face froze for a moment.
Ruan Chong, who was next to Qi Ruifeng, coughed, and at this time, he felt that he needed to stand up and say something. He quickly approached the Awakened who were talking:
"One win or defeat doesn't mean anything, the captain didn't use his best strength in the qualifying round, and he just lost one game accidentally. ”
Several awakened people who were laughing and talking in a low voice were stunned when they heard Ruan Chong's words, and then quickly reacted that Ruan Chong's origin should be a student of Jiangnan University.
These awakened people didn't want to cause disputes because of verbal chat, and when they saw Ruan Chong coming up, one of the awakened people said with a smile: "Yes, let's just talk casually, we are very clear about the strength of Jiangnan University, last year's top four." ”
When people are sensitive, they will want to be crooked when they listen to anything, but when Ruan Chong sees the smiling face of the person in front of him, he will be mistaken, thinking that the other party is talking the opposite. He snorted lightly and said, "Our captain's strength doesn't need other people's comments, in the last plane world, the captain completed an A-level elite mission! ”
"A-rank elite mission?" the other awakened ones all looked surprised. For a task of this level, it is difficult for the vast majority of Awakened to even trigger it, let alone complete it.
Even Bao Yiming and Duanmu Cheng looked at Qi Ruifeng's eyes with a hint of solemnity. They have also completed the elite mission, and because of this, they know what the A-level elite mission represents.
Generally speaking, elite quests have to face at least one boss, and the leader level of the spirit plane matched by the awakened person is at least 1~2 levels higher than the personal level of the awakened. Qi Ruifeng is level 6, and he is at least a level 7 boss in the spirit interface, or even a level 8 leader!
And the A-level elite mission, I am afraid that there is more than one leader to face. For example, Bai Xiaowen's mission to find medicine in the Jiajing Plane World was finally completed after killing the Black Zombie King and the White Ghost.
"Nguyen Chong come back. Qi Ruifeng's face was indifferent, without the slightest smugness, and he said very calmly. The more unfazed he is, the more unfathomable his strength becomes.
The chatter began again.
"Qi Ruifeng is really an old powerhouse. ”
"yes, A-rank elite mission, I've only done it in my dreams. ”
"It seems that in the qualifying round, Bai Xiaowen defeated him, just a fluke. ”
The corners of Bai Xiaowen's mouth hooked slightly, revealing an unpredictable smile.
Wang Jin saw the smile on Bai Xiaowen's face and said, "What's the matter, it seems that you are not very surprised by Qi Ruifeng's achievements." ”
"What's the matter, the level elite task, it's too powerful. Bai Xiaowen tried his best to make a solemn and admiring expression.
Wang Jin: "......" What kind of fuss is your exaggerated acting skills?
And at this moment, a crisp female voice sounded from the northeast: "A-level elite mission, what's the big deal?"
Everyone looked for a sound, and saw a girl in a white kendo uniform walking quickly.
She was tall, with two swords hanging from her waist, and her black hair, which looked like a waterfall, was tied into a sleek ponytail by a string. Although judging from the fluctuations of the spiritual power field, she is only about level 5, but the momentum she faintly exudes, the calm and calm temperament, makes people dare not despise it.
Bai Xiaowen smiled and walked up to the girl in the white kendo uniform: "You're here." ”
The person who came was none other than Li Shuyi.
Li Shuyi's picturesque face showed a happy smile, and in the envious and jealous eyes of a group of boys, she reached out and held Bai Xiaowen's palm, and the two held hands.
Li Shuyi and Ruan Chong had a holiday, so when she heard Ruan Chong praising Qi Ruifeng, she couldn't help but mock.
Ruan Chong was a little weak-hearted, but he refused to lose face, and said with a sneer: "You are not a hero class...... What, you've done an A-rank elite mission?"
Li Shuyi glanced at Ruan Chong: "I often encounter it, but I don't think much of it." Comparatively, it is still the hero mission that is more challenging. ”
"Bragging who wouldn't. Ruan Chong said.
Li Shuyi raised her eyebrows, and just as she was about to go back, Bai Xiaowen gently patted her shoulder.
"Alright...... The elite mission is indeed remarkable," Bai Xiaowen turned his gaze from Li Shuyi to the others as he spoke, and after looking around for a week, he finally fixed on Ruan Chong's body, "However, my family Shuyi will never brag." It's better to take back what you said just now. ”
Ruan Chong was a little afraid of Bai Xiaowen, he dared to scold Li Shuyi, but he didn't dare to scold Bai Xiaowen, he shrunk his neck and didn't continue to raise the bar.
"Everyone, let's go first. ”
Bai Xiaowen waved his hand to Wang Jin and the others, and then walked side by side with Li Shuyi and stepped into the entrance ramp of the Sinkhole of the Dead.
Bai Xiaowen was mainly waiting for Li Shuyi, and if other people from Jinghai University could come at the same time, of course, it would be okay to form a team together. It's just that Li Shuyi came, and the others didn't arrive, so there was no need for him to waste precious time and continue to wait.
Although she is the captain of the school team, Bai Xiaowen is not equal to a nanny.
Others are waiting for alumni to gather and strengthen their own university's ranks. But Bai Xiaowen doesn't need it, he just needs Li Shuyi.
