Chapter 621 - SS-Class Mission Full of Temptation (2-in-1)
Coming to the second layer of the Great Mausoleum, it is even colder here, the effect of the lingering yin qi is stronger, and the health value, physical fitness, mental power, etc., which can still be slowly recovered, have become zero recovery.
On the other hand, the undead summoned creatures seemed to have returned to their hometown, bathed in yin energy, and the health lost in the previous war was rapidly recovering.
When the two of them stepped on the floor of the second floor, a burst of white light suddenly flashed on the staircase behind them, and a transparent light film appeared, sealing the intersection of the staircase.
"What's the situation? If you don't complete the task, you won't be able to get out of the Great Mausoleum?" Li Shuyi wondered.
Bai Xiaowen frowned: "I don't know yet." He habitually looked at his left wrist.
"The first room on the second floor...... There seems to be no enemy. Li Shuyi first looked at the dim moss light on the second floor and sighed.
"No, that's not right!"
When Bai Xiaowen saw the pattern on the bracelet of bad luck, it was actually a panicked face! This represented serious danger, and the slightest carelessness could lead to death.
Taking advantage of the fact that he had not entered the battle state, Bai Xiaowen directly withdrew all the summoned creatures, and then launched a range search of spiritual power.
It is a basic operating habit to retract summoned creatures before the big battle, so that after entering the battle, you can use the fixed-point airdrop, which can not only block skills, but also airdrop melee creatures to surround and kill long-range enemies and seize the rhythm of the battle.
Under the search of spiritual power, Bai Xiaowen's face changed slightly.
A slightly smug voice rang out: "I knew a rat was coming in." ”
At the west entrance, three figures walked out of it, it was Prince Richard and his two chief-level guards.
At the same time, at the gateway on the east side and the north side, two groups of people also walked out separately. On the north side are Abbot Melda and the Rough Aunt Nun, and on the east side are Golantis, the Swordmaster Carlisle, and Goliath.
Beside them, there were several palace guards under the command of Grand Lord Golantis, as well as a dozen royal halberd-bearers led by Prince Richard.
Eight leader-level powerhouses and nearly twenty elites blocked the three narrow portals on the second floor of the underground mausoleum.
In this situation, if the average awakened person doesn't have a prop such as a return to the city, he can only GG.
Bai Xiaowen knew that he underestimated the abilities of these leaders, perhaps because the task of attacking Beijun was easily completed, which made him have a trace of subconscious contempt for this plane.
In any case, the eight leaders were all powerful forces that Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi's team could not resist, not to mention the help of more than a dozen elite guards.
The corner of Bai Xiaowen's eyes swept to the stairs behind him.
Dean Melda said coldly: "Don't think about it, I have reactivated the seal on the second floor of the Great Mausoleum, and you can't escape." ”
A soft sound sounded, and Goliath on the east side said suspiciously, "Is it you?"
Under the faint glow of luminous moss, Golia's expression could be seen to be subtle, both confused and surprised.
"Gloria, do you know this intruder?" asked Dean Melda.
Gloria nodded slightly: "This person's name is Dio Skelboom. ”
Dean Melda's eyes suddenly glowed with wonder, and he said sharply, "Dio Skelboom, is that the outsider who stole the Evil Soul Stone?"
Golantis on the side also reacted and screamed, "It's you, Dio Skelboom!
Prince Richard was slightly stunned, and then a playful smile appeared on his face.
"I really didn't expect that the thief of the soul stone would take the initiative to show up. Are you not satisfied after stealing the Evil Soul Stone, and you want to get your hands on it...... Well, you must have been affected by the soul stone, and the whole person has become evil and depraved. ”
"Your Royal Highness, this person is an important member of the rebel army! In the battle of the rebel army to break through the northern county, he has the blood of countless imperial soldiers on his hands, this is a butcher and executioner!" His Royal Highness, you must not let him go!"
"Wait a minute, this is an outsider, we need to get him to hand over the Evil Soul Stone before he dies!" Melda said loudly.
Golia nodded and said, "Yes, he does not belong to our plane world, if we kill him, we will not be able to find the soul stone from his corpse, we must let him take the initiative to hand it over." ”
After a pause, Golia said, "Also, be careful that he has the ability to teleport across planes, and this is how he escaped from my hands and returned to his own world in the frozen tomb two years ago. ”
As soon as these two paragraphs came out, Dean Melda's face suddenly became much more solemn.
"Don't worry," Prince Richard said slowly, "we in the royal family have also recorded information about outsiders...... First of all, interdimensional teleportation is not arbitrary, and these outsiders must meet certain conditions before they can cross the plane, or they will have to use some kind of precious magic item to force the crossing. Second, forcibly returning across the plane is a very bad choice for these outsiders, as if some kind of punishment will befall them. ”
Li Shuyi's face was a little ugly, this Prince Richard seemed to know a lot about the awakened.
Bai Xiaowen was very relaxed, and said with a smile: "Unfortunately, I happen to have the kind of precious magic item you said. ”
As he spoke, Bai Xiaowen showed the scroll in his hand to return to the city. At his suggestion, Li Shuyi also showed the return to the city.
Melda frowned and looked at the Grand Lord Golantis on the side, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes.
Glandis was a little unwilling, and after carefully sensing it, she could only nod and say, "That's right, I can feel the fluctuations of spatial energy from those two magic scrolls." There is a more than 90% chance that it is an item that forcibly crosses the plane as His Royal Highness said. ”
"Okay, I guess we can talk. Bai Xiaowen said with a smile.
The basis of the negotiation is that neither side has the ability to destroy the opponent, and both have interests in the opponent.
However, Prince Richard snorted: "I have nothing to talk about with you. Guys, don't waste any more time and kill these two invaders...... Or, at the very least, force them out of our world. ”
The two leader-level powerhouse guards behind Prince Richard were ready to move.
"Wait!" Dean Melda said hurriedly, "Since it is impossible to take the Soul Stone by force, I think there is a need for negotiations. What do you think, Goliath?"
Goliath nodded and said to Bai Xiaowen: "Please hand over the evil soul stone, and I will ask His Royal Highness the prince for instructions and let you leave here." ”
Bai Xiaowen shook his head: "Let me go?" I can leave at any time. You can want soul stones, but the chips you pay are almost zero, and I don't see any sincerity. ”
Golia took a breath and persuaded from another angle: "Why are you so attached to the evil soul stone? You are not an evil person by nature, and when I first met you, you stood up to protect your friends and faced a powerful existence unknown to your friends and foes...... This is a virtue that many knights do not possess. A moment of greed led you to steal the Soul Stone, but its power was too evil to only make you fall like Falgar was mad. ”
Bai Xiaowen smiled: "Miss Golia, do you think I'm crazy now?"
Goliath glanced at Bai Xiaowen carefully.
Bai Xiaowen's charm played a role again, the young man in front of him with slender eyebrows and eyes like bright stars exuded a temperament called "handsome" all over his body, and it was difficult to equate him with the crazy Falgar no matter what.
Gloria lowered her eyelids: "I...... I can't see it yet. ”
Bai Xiaowen said with a smile: "What the soul stone brings me is only a kind of power, and the power itself has no distinction between justice and evil, I use it on the right path, which is righteous, and if I use it on the evil path, it is evil." ”
Dean Melda said in a deep voice: "True evil is often not revealed. ”
The rough aunt and nun behind Melda spoke loudly, "Yes, Golia, don't be deceived by this kid. Mama once said that the more good-looking a man is, the more he likes to deceive people. ”
Bai Xiaowen was about to fool Golia, who he hadn't seen for a long time, but he was broken by Aunt Rough, and he was embarrassed.
Dean Melda: "Without further ado, how on earth are you willing to hand over the Soul Stone?"
Bai Xiaowen secretly observed the surroundings and said, "Then it depends on your sincerity." ”
Dean Melda took a breath and said, "I can exchange it with you in the 'God-given Page'!"
As soon as this sentence came out, the audience was shocked.
Gloria couldn't help but say, "Dean, didn't you tell me that the God-given page is gone, and I have to interrupt my mission for this......
Dean Melda said lightly: "Even if you are given another chance to cross the plane, you will not be able to complete the task, the God-given page is so precious, I don't want to waste it." ”
"Wait...... Shouldn't you tell me first, what is the God-given page?" For this kind of free information, of course, Bai Xiaowen did not refuse to come.
Melda said, "The God-given page is actually a holy parchment tainted with the divine power of the Lord of Light, and this kind of paper contains powerful energy that can make extraordinarily powerful magic scrolls. With the God-given Page, a third-rate inscriptionist can produce results comparable to those of a great inscriptionist, and a great inscriptionist who is highly skilled in his own right can even use the power contained in the God-given Page to produce a miracle scroll that breaks the barrier of the plane......"
Bai Xiaowen was shocked because he received a reminder message from the rules of the spirit world:
"You have learned important information about the God-given page from the spiritual beings. ”
"Special Elite Side Quest: Scavenger, Open. ”
"Objective: Find the sealed hand bones in the Bright Pass and destroy the sealing spell. ”
"Difficulty: SS. ”
"Mission Duration: None (equivalent to the remaining time you spend in the Aaronic Plane). ”
"Reward: Ancient Divine Remnants. ”
[Ancient Divine Power Residue: Ember of the Power of the Fallen Gods, after use, it can increase the potential of the Awakened, immediately obtain free attribute points equivalent to the user's level, and randomly increase 1~3 additional free attributes every time the class level increases.] Bind after picking. 】
Bai Xiaowen took a breath, the value of this reward is really not low. Not to mention the free attribute that is directly added, the later growth alone is attractive enough. If it's the Emperor, it's equivalent to an additional 3 points of growth for each upgrade.
When it comes to the advanced awakened stage, 3 attributes don't mean that it's against the sky, but it should be noted that the attributes increased by upgrading are all "basic attributes"!
Many of the gold equipment dropped under the high-level plane are very superb, but the requirements for basic attributes are also getting higher and higher, and many times there will be a lack of basic attributes, even if you take enhancement potions, there are times when you reach the limit and can't make up for it. In this way, adding the attribute of freedom is precious.
Receiving the task prompt, including thinking about these things, it seemed to take a long time, but in Bai Xiaowen's mind, it was only 0.1 seconds later, and he immediately took over this SS elite difficulty scavenger task.
Bai Xiaowen's expression of intent, Melda could see it clearly, she would obviously be wrong - Bai Xiaowen was not interested in the God-given page, but in the reward of the scavenger mission!
"The God-given page is at the pass of light. If you are willing to agree, we can go directly to the Guangming Pass to trade. First, though, we have to make a covenant and swear to the gods. Melda said.
Go to the Bright Pass?
Bai Xiaowen couldn't ask for it. But swearing to the gods, that is, notarization of the rules of the spirit world, Bai Xiaowen would never agree, not to mention the importance of the black soul stone to him, even if Bai Xiaowen wanted to give it, the black soul stone as exclusive equipment could not be handed over.
Bai Xiaowen could only use the flickering tactic: "I can agree, but I can't swear until I see the page given by God." ”
"Good ......"
However, Melda's words were rudely interrupted after only one word.
"He won't give you soul stones!" Prince Richard snorted, "This kind of transaction is a waste of time. I want to complete my mission as soon as possible, and only after checking that the seal is intact will I lead my army to reclaim the North County. ”
This sentence was clearly addressed to the Grand Lord of Golantis.
Melda changed color and tried her best to stop it: "Your Royal Highness, we should be more patient......"
Golantis took a breath: "Beigong guards, listen to my orders and kill these two rebels!" In the final analysis, her purpose is only to use the power of Prince Richard to recover Beijun, what evil soul stone does not mean anything to her.
Several palace guards rushed over quickly. At the same time, the royal halberd-wielding guards under the command of Prince Richard also poured in.
Bai Xiaowen laughed and said, "Just up to you, you can't stop me!"
A strong coercion spread, and Bai Xiaowen instantly activated the deterrence skill! When everyone was stiffened, he and Li Shuyi ran straight towards the north portal, which was where Dean Melda was.
High-level bosses all have resilience skills, and their deterrence lasts for a very short time. By the time Bai Xiaowen approached the north portal, the leaders in the field had already recovered from their fear/stun state one after another.
"Stop him!" exclaimed Prince Richard.
However, Melda and the rough aunt nun seemed to rush up to meet Bai Xiaowen, but in fact, they slightly sideways to avoid it, watching Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi rush through the portal and disappear into the darkness.
"Dean Melda, our deal is still valid!" Bai Xiaowen laughed, his voice getting farther and farther away.
Prince Richard's face was frosty: "Melda, I need an explanation!"
