Chapter 547: Midyear Festival Activities

The seventh and a half months of the lunar calendar, the mid-year festival.

This day is a traditional festival for the people of the Dragon Kingdom, also known as the Ghost Festival.

As the day arrives, players find that the décor of Hades has changed dramatically.

The buildings in the city lit a dancing dark green ghost fire, the sky was sprinkled with yellow paper, the dark clouds above were low, the cool breeze was swishing, and from time to time there were sighs and whispers of resentment in the ears, and the atmosphere became extremely strange and terrifying.

Of course, for this, with the exception of a few timid players, most players are completely immune.

After all, the courage has been completely tempered in the battle, and they are all predators who have experienced war.

In the eyes of players, even if a real ghost comes out, it can empty its health bar.

At this time, what players are most looking forward to is what activities the dog official will come out on this day, whether it will have a brain pump and a wave of super welfare activities, such as giving away 10,000 soul coins......

For the activities of the Midyear Festival, Lu Wunaturally had already made plans.

In the early morning of the same day, it was the first to release the opening notice of the event.

……

After the preview of the Midyear Festival event was released, the faces of Beiqi players were suddenly filled with smiles.

It is only at this time that players will give official praise on the forum.

The opening day of each event is also the peak moment of the number of people online.

As long as there is nothing particularly important to deal with in reality, players will be online and ready for the event.

On this day, there are players returning from the sea or other regions in each area of the Beiqi region.

For players, every holiday event is not just a matter of sucking the official blood of the dog, but also very importantly, the event can bring happiness.

Therefore, every time the opening of the conquest festival event is a grand event for players in the whole region.

After knowing that the first event was "Invasion of the Ghost Mother", players have already begun to scan the mall for "Mobility Potion" and other auxiliary items, and are ready to prepare.

When twelve o'clock in the afternoon came, the sky suddenly became very gloomy, the wind was howling, the dark clouds were surging, and hundreds of ghost gates randomly appeared in various areas of the Beiqi Domain.

Huge figures emerged from inside the door.

?? Painted skin ghosts, hanged ghosts, plague ghosts, mandrills, black impermanence, white impermanence, bull heads, horse faces, hooked souls, etc.

At this moment, the hundred ghosts led 100,000 ghost soldiers to arrive.

At this time, a dark blue gate also appeared in the underworld. A white ghost claw stretched out from the door and grabbed the edge of the door, followed by a figure more than ten meters tall, white all over, holding a mourning rod and spitting out a long tongue that dragged the floor.

It is the impermanence of whiteness!

Seeing this scene, the players in the Hades were stunned for a moment, and then they all ran towards the outside of the Hades like crazy.

Because the active monsters are invincible, there is no blood bar at all, so you can only escape, and you can't fight head-on at all.

The entire underworld became a mess at this moment.

The gate of Hades has become extremely congested, except for players who have purchased flying props, a large number of players are crowded here, and they can't go out at all for a short time.

At this moment, players who want to get out of the city are trampled on people like zombies attacking the city, climbing up the city wall, the difference is that one goes in and the other goes out.

The scene was crazy.

When Bai Wuchang's figure was completely condensed, and the subordinate ghost soldiers also walked out of the ghost gate, the game prompt appeared.

[Region-wide Notice: The Hundred Ghosts Night Walk event is officially launched, please pay attention to avoid the pursuit of the Hundred Ghosts!] Let's try to survive! 】

As the announcement appeared, White Impermanence went into action, and it stepped towards the player closest to it.

The yin wind gusted, carrying the yellow dark paper sprinkled down, and the atmosphere became extremely eerie and terrifying, and many players turned pale at this moment.

"Run! Don't block the road in front of you, can your uncle hurry up tomorrow! ”

"Go to the West Gate, this road is impassable, don't get caught!"

"Here, Bai Wuchang is here, can the pen in front of you hurry up, it's so ink when you go out, I'll squeeze your uncle!"

……

In the event scene set up by Beili, players quickly assumed their identities and began to run for their lives.

In this event, all players can only dodge and cannot fight.

Because this is a fleeing activity with completely unequal strength, not a confrontational activity.

Even if the players run out of the underworld, it is not safe, because there are hundreds of ghosts and ghost soldiers in various areas of Beiqi, and the consequence of being caught is instant killing.

As a result, all kinds of riotous operations appeared.

After all, there are not many hundred ghosts, and for players, the threat is not particularly big, but the 100,000 ghost soldiers make players feel extremely headaches.

However, the ghost soldier has a peculiarity, that is, after killing the player, it will fall into a state of immobility, which lasts for about 1 minute.

As a result, a large number of players "wittily" chose to sell their teammates.

The friends who originally said that they would run away together, when they were forced to retreat, they decisively pushed their teammates to the ghost soldiers, let them be killed, and then slipped away by themselves.

That's what this part of the players said, after all, the event, the fun is over!

So selling teammates became one of the means of escape.

As long as there is no escape, throwing a teammate out is like throwing a skill that makes the ghost soldier "stop moving", allowing the team to continue to escape.

Trust between players is completely lost, and players not only have to face the pursuit of ghosts and ghost soldiers, but also prevent unscrupulous teammates from selling themselves and throwing them out as skills.

One second you are brothers, the next second you are my "stand-in puppet", die heroically!

As some players put this "heartbreaking" way of survival on the event chat channel, such a "bad behavior" instantly became a popular strategy for this event.

Those who have used it say good!

During this period, there are also such a number of players with clear brain circuits, who buried themselves in the ground when the event was opened, thinking that they could avoid the pursuit of the hundred ghosts.

But how could the activities set up by Lu Wu and Beili be so easy to break the situation.

Now that Lu Wu's soul coin inventory is not much, it is naturally a good thing to have one less player to receive rewards.

Therefore, he and the hundred ghosts designed by Beili have different abilities, including those with a keen sense of smell, clairvoyance, and short-distance teleportation...... In short, in front of the hundred ghosts, it is completely impossible to find a place to hide until the end of the event.

Players can only keep changing their dodge positions and always be on the lookout for possible dangers, so that they can survive until the end.

This tense and exciting pursuit and escape activity became even more tragic after the appearance of the boss monster ghost mother.

At this moment, the Fourth Cataclysm Player Legion who once shouted to dominate this world, the ghost crying wolf who was chased and killed by the ghosts was extremely miserable.

The feeling of being surrounded by hideous ghosts, but powerless to resist, made some timid players almost cry.

It's terrifying!

……

Naturally, the behavior of the players during the event also attracted the attention of many neutral forces in Beiqi.

But they're used to it.

In their opinion, these player creatures are going crazy in the land of Beiqi every once in a while, and they don't know what they are doing.

Shouting at the air on the right, looking at the air with a frightened face, Sayazi running back and forth in the land of Beiqi and so on.

Anyway, they don't look very smart......
