The Valley of the Fallen is currently one of the most difficult dungeons in the AO, and every time the player defeats one of the new bosses, an announcement will be made on the map's world channel, and all the guilds in the map of the Valley of the Fallen are coming for this dungeon, so the fact that the Wind and Rain Freemasonry Guild passed the fourth and fifth in one breath that night immediately spread on the AO forum.

Since the dungeon of Fallen Valley has been open for nearly half a year, there are seven or eight guilds in the all-access area, and because of this, a new dungeon will be opened in two weeks, that is, the remastered old version of Karazhan.

At the banquet in the evening, Xia Chiyu and the four of them came to the ark barrier as promised.

"Oh? Your guild has become a war barrier. Xia Chiyu looked at the city curiously and said.

Located in the area of Phoenix Heights, the Storm Freemasonry is a level 64 to 68 map, built against a maple tree that reaches into the sky. This maple tree is called the "Nirvana Tree", and in the background of AO's story, the phoenix is perched on the top of this tree, and whenever a phoenix dies and regains Nirvana, a large meteor shower will fall on this map.

And the Nirvana tree itself is fireproof, so a small area under the roots of the Nirvana tree is a safe area. It is precisely because of this that most of the monsters on this map have extremely terrifying fire resistance, and at the same time, there are also many fire resistance equipment on this map, with several fixed refresh copies.

The stormy city is called the "Ark Barrier", the whole city is in the shape of an ark, it is a narrow pentagonal shape, there are not many shops in the city, only the minimum that can meet the needs of the player, the rest are all dwarf bunkers and turrets such as defensive measures, and many defensive measures such as arrow towers and enchantment towers can also be seen on the city wall.

From the perspective of the size of the city, there are about two small towns, and it should only reach the fifth level of barriers.

"Yes, we don't make a profit from the city's income, because the members are very high-level. And they are all players who focus on PVE, and the money from selling materials is enough for most of the expenditure. Chen Feng smiled, "Commander, are you and your friend PvP players?" ”

The difference between the so-called PVE players and PvP players is that PvP players just use the dungeon as a tool for upgrading, and there is a balance system in the arena, and there is no difference in the attributes of the equipment, as long as there is a level.

As for PVE players, it's for the hardest dungeons like the Valley of the Fallen.

Although the Valley of the Fallen is a level 67 to 75 dungeon, it is more difficult than many level 80 dungeons, and of course the equipment attributes dropped are better. More experience too.

Players generally don't use this kind of dungeon to level up, because it's too dangerous, and it's usually for the so-called "honor". For PVE players, the quest progress in the Valley of the Fallen is equivalent to the ladder value of PVP players, which is a symbol of strength. Another reason is that for the sake of equipment, Fallen Valley will drop the only "set" in the AO so far.

Although these sets are only purple equipment and their stats are only slightly higher, they can have special effects comparable to artifacts and holy weapons when put together. It has a great improvement on PVE, and the PVP aspect is also quite good. Due to the low drop rate of the set, and the fact that only the fifth or sixth boss in the Valley of the Fallen only comes out of the set, the number of people who own the set is very small.

The main thing is: The suit requires a helmet, shoulder armor, boots, gloves, and five pieces of formal equipment to be effective, and only two of them are currently dropped by team dungeons. However, when the next team quest is opened, three more set pieces will be dropped, and the effect of the four-piece set will be comparable to that of an artifact.

That's why the Stormy Freemasons are in a hurry to clear the Valley of the Fallen. The first is to make up as many sets as possible for the team, so that you can make up a four-piece set when the new team dungeon is opened in the future, and the second is to attract more players to join through the progress to facilitate the development of the next team dungeon.

The progress of defeating Boss 5 in the Valley of the Fallen will attract a lot of high-level and skilled players to join the club, for the simple reason that Boss 5 can produce a set part. One player in today's team book has a part of the set that gets it, and as long as you keep playing, sooner or later everyone will get a set.

Due to the extremely high difficulty of team dungeons, the drop mechanism is different from that of normal dungeons, and each boss must have a piece of equipment that the current player has not obtained, and it will not stop dropping until every piece of equipment on the player's body comes from that dungeon. Sets are dropped separately, so there will be no second set of the same type after the same set. And if the player doesn't get out of the suit this time, the chance of the set dropping will increase the next time they play until it is out.

"I guess it's a forced PvP player." Xia Chiyu smiled, "You should have heard a lot about us. ”

"You mean Yang Zhilong?" Chen Feng smiled and shook his head, "Don't worry, we all know what kind of character Yang Zhilong is, maybe he can deceive the unknown people, but he can't deceive me." To be honest, if you can defeat him, many advanced players still applaud, and even if you want to blame him, you can only blame him for being too arrogant. ”

Gu Qinyan snorted with his nose behind him: "It's rare to meet someone who understands." ”

"Although I didn't go to see it in person, I heard Qianxue talk about your game, so I thought you were PvP players, four level 60 players can defeat the Fire Demon, even in the arena, it's very powerful, not to mention, the commander finally won a fair head-to-head with the other party, and even the forbidden spell was used." Chen Feng sighed.

"Oh, Master Mage is really powerful, a forbidden spell is famous......" Su Xing said sourly in the back, "I can use the forbidden spell so powerful." ”

"No...... There are a few other rumors about me. Xia Chiyu smiled bitterly and punched Su Xing in the face.

Su Xing staggered to the side and disappeared into the crowd, and Chen Feng immediately replied, "Oh? You mean about your black gear, right? Personally, I think it's a bit of a fuss. It may have been an act of betrayal for your friends at the time, but I don't think it was that bad for anyone else. ”

"Originally, I just grabbed a level 50 purple suit, and I have to say that I have a deep hatred like someone killed my father, what does this kind of person think?" Gu Qinyan scoffed at him.

"What's more, the current drop mechanism has been changed, so even if you want to hack equipment, you can't hack it, right?" Chen Feng smiled, "In this copy of the Valley of the Fallen. Only the last boss has a small chance of dropping an artifact. ”

The four of them chatted while entering the city under the leadership of Chen Feng, the number of players in the city is actually not much, from more than forty to more than seventy levels, the long tables on both sides of the streets of the whole city are full of all kinds of dishes, all kinds of fireworks are constantly placed in the sky above the city, players chat in groups to enjoy the food, the whole city is very lively. Of course, there is no doubt that this celebration will also cost a huge amount of money, and the all-you-can-eat food that the whole city will eat will cost a lot of Star Coins.

"Oh! All-you-can-eat! Great! Even though I've eaten dinner, I'm still hungry! Su Xing looked at the banquet tables all over the city, and his eyes radiated light. As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared to the edge of a table.

"Would you like to have a drink or two?" Gu Qinyan asked Reis, and then sneered: "Of course, if you drink the same amount as your character, then forget it." ”

"Oops?" Lacey chuckled, the corners of his forehead twitching, "Okay, then we both don't want to get drunk tonight." Let's see who's going to drink it first, it's still daytime anyway. ”

Drinking alcohol in the game will accumulate "alcohol". The game helmet then communicates to the brain, and how much alcohol will be drunk depends on the player's willpower and physical strength.

As a result, only Xia Chiyu and Chen Feng were left to continue in the city. Then. A tall, slender figure appeared in front of her, a girl in a pale pink evening dress, and she slowly turned around.

Lin Qianxue changed her hairstyle in the game today, and the ends of her hair were permed into small curls. looks very mature, coupled with that slender figure and that beautiful evening dress, it makes him ashamed of himself.

"That. I handed you over to Qianxue, aren't you old friends with her? Chen Feng replied and patted Xia Chiyu on the shoulder.

And Lin Qianxue stretched out her hand to Xia Chiyu, Xia Chiyu smiled slightly bitterly, and stretched out her arm for Lin Qianxue to hold.

"Eat fish, thanks to your merits, our guild ranking has jumped to seventeenth." Lin Qianxue said with a smile.

"You're welcome, isn't that why I'm back?" Xia Chiyu said with a smile.

"But even if we hired you to help, your cousin is really beyond expectations." Lin Qianxue pursed her lips, picked up two glasses of elf fruit wine from the table and handed them to Xia Chiyu.

"That's natural, after all, you recommended me, I can't let you down, right?" Xia Chiyu took a sip of wine and said.

Lin Qianxue let out a chuckle like a silver bell, picked up a plate of food and handed it to Xia Chiyu and said, "You take something to eat yourself, you're welcome." It's made of high-grade materials, and although it's not enough, it tastes good. ”

"yes, I know." Xia Chiyu took it and tasted it, "By the way, this should have cost a lot of money, right?" ”

"Fortunately, our guild is all rich second generation, there are a lot of idlers, and the materials are all brushed by themselves, and they basically don't spend money." Lin Qianxue replied with a smile, "You know, we people usually don't have much to do, and we spend all day in games." ”

"Anyway, you've all passed the ID verification, and you're over eighteen years old, and no one can control you." Xia Chiyu said with a smile, then he looked at Lin Qianxue carefully, and said with a smile: "You are very beautiful today." ”

"Hee-hee, people are just waiting for you to say this." Lin Qianxue pursed her lips and smiled, "Na, eat fish, although we are celebrating in the game today, wait until tomorrow morning, I'll take you out to celebrate, okay?" Just the two of us, let's go have a good meal. ”

Xia Chiyu raised his eyebrows and groaned, Lin Qianxue hurriedly added: "As a boss and an employee? What are you a friend? Then Lin Qianxue said coquettishly: "Oh, people just want to come out with you!" ”

"Okay, then I'll have a treat, I'll find a place." Xia Chiyu asked, Lin Qianxue pursed her lips, stared at Xia Chiyu with big eyes, and said for a while, "Hmm...... All right. ”

After yesterday's battle, Xia Chiyu seemed to have become famous, and on the way forward between him and Lin Qianxue, the people in the Wind and Rain Masonic Guild greeted him one after another: "Yo! Isn't this the Commander? Thank you so much for today! "That's it, we've been stuck with the boss for two weeks, and you'll be there in less than twenty hours."

"I'll tell Chenfeng to give you a raise." Lin Qianxue laughed softly beside her.

"No, it's not going to be good." Xia Chiyu rubbed Lin Qianxue's brain and said, Lin Qianxue pursed her lips and said, "It's okay, it should be like this." This is not my opinion, Chen Feng said, he will feel at ease if he gives you a raise, otherwise he will worry about you being poached all day long. It's not like you're unaware. You're already famous in the PVE guild during the day today. ”

"Really...... Yes, too. Xia Chiyu groaned, Lin Qianxue tilted her head and smiled: "Right? So, just ask him to give you a raise, or he'll be worried about you being poached all day long. Let me tell you, there are outsiders in our group today who have come to inquire about who the commander of our guild is. You wait, someone will come to poach you tomorrow. ”

"Well, you can rest assured, if I really did it for payment, I wouldn't AFK for so long." Xia Chiyu said, and Lin Qianxue came to a table: "Qianxue, tell you something." About the last boss. ”

"Huh? What happened to the last boss? Our fifth is so easy, the sixth shouldn't be a problem. Lin Qianxue and Xia Chiyu sat down face to face, holding their chins, with gentle expressions, and asked with a smile.

Xia Chiyu sighed, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's not that simple, the reason why you think that the fourth and fifth are simple is because there is a puzzle-solving component that weakens the boss." But the sixth should have no puzzle mode. ”

"Why?" Lin Qianxue frowned and said, Xia Chiyu raised his index finger and explained: "Although it's just my speculation. But not without reason to speculate. First, our puzzle elements so far have all been used up by the fifth boss, and you can see that the foreshadowing that is like a novel has been used up. Then it's basically time to end. ”

"Second, it is the boss at the bottom of the level after all, and there must be a reason why the Valley of the Fallen, as the most difficult copy of AO, is stuck so many players." Xia Chiyu said. clicked on the pve interface and said, "Look, the guild that is currently stuck in the sixth child." There are twenty-six of you, far more than the five of you. ”

"There must be a reason for this, and I think I'm not the only one who discovered the Fallen Valley puzzle mode, even though no one has made these secrets public. In between, I think the final boss should not have solved the puzzle, or it should be a new and particularly complex puzzle, but whether there is a puzzle or not, the sixth should be particularly difficult. So ......"

"Huh?" Lin Qianxue still looked at him so gently, waiting for him to say the second half of the sentence.

"I think, let's not fight the sixth this week, so as to save you from attrition." Xia Chiyu replied, "Next week, the four of us will go to explore the boss, try out the general skills and solve the puzzle, and then take you to the boss." ”

"Just in time for next week's update?" Lin Qianxue held her chin with both hands and smiled, Xia Chiyu nodded: "Yes, let's strive to pass the boss on Friday and update it on Monday, so that you have time to collect people on Saturday and Sunday and prepare for the new version." ”

"Well, that's good." Lin Qianxue nodded with a smile, "Then, let's just wait for Saturday to go out to celebrate, okay?" ”

Xia Chiyu smiled bitterly: "I just planned it like this, and I may not really be able to defeat it." ”

"No, I believe you." Lin Qianxue smiled and said, "Anyway, I'll see you next Saturday, and I'll tell you something when the time comes." ”

"Ah...... Good. Xia Chiyu said, Lin Qianxue dragged him up, "Let's go, I'll take you to our city to have a look." By the way, those three of your teammates seem to be quite good. ”

"yes." Xia Chiyu snorted, "It's all ...... Tongguò got together in a certain way, although it is not so reliable, but it is still quite trustworthy in terms of strength. You also saw the arena with the Fire Demon last time, right? Moreover, the three of them have played a lot of professions and have high-level experience, and they are all good at PvP, and the PVE is not bad. ”

"Do you want to ......" Lin Qianxue raised her eyebrows and asked curiously, "Playing the World Tour with them?" ”

"I don't know, I just happened to run into them." Xia Chiyu shrugged his shoulders, "Let it be." ”

After walking for a while, Xia Chiyu suddenly saw a large number of people cheering around a table, Lin Qianxue also glanced at him curiously, and the two approached the table together.

"Hey, what's going on? Get out of the way, get out of the way, let me go in and have a look! Lin Qianxue frowned and said, everyone saw that it was Lin Qianxue, and they all laughed: "Oh, the vice president is here?" "And the conductor? Commander, your two friends are amazing. "yes, this is a dragon's breath spirit with an alcohol concentration of up to 50%, so much to drink!"

When everyone came to the table, they found Gu Qinyan and Reis sitting at the table, you and I were pouring one cup at a time, with a large stack of empty wine bottles piled up next to them, and Su Xing was eating wildly on the side, with a large pile of empty plates around him.

At this moment, both Reis and Gu Qinyan were already flushed, and their expressions were a little hideous with pain.

"Don't hold on, I don't think you're drunk and can't speak clearly." Gu Qinyan grabbed a glass of wine and sneered, the expression on his face was as if he was holding a bomb that was about to explode, but he couldn't throw it away.

"I think the swordsman is a master, and he can't even speak, right?" Lacey replied with a smile, and although his face was red, he seemed to be at ease.

As for waking up, he took care of himself and occupied a whole table to eat.

"Shame on me, you guys...... I'm sorry guys, but I don't know them. Xia Chiyu sighed helplessly, came to the table and picked up a glass of wine and looked at it, and then took a sip, he only felt that a flame was burning in his mouth, and he was "poof!" A mouthful of it all spewed out, and the crimson liquid turned into a flame in midair.

"Sorry to interrupt, you continue to ......" Xia Chiyu covered his mouth and came to the side, Lin Qianxue covered her mouth and chuckled, helping him through the crowd, "Let's go, let's go eat something and drink some light drinks." ”

The banquet that night lasted for a long time, and in the end everyone was very happy, and then Xia Chiyu expressed his opinion on the last boss of the Valley of Fallen to Chenfeng, and Chenfeng also agreed to his plan.

Therefore, the next day, Sunday morning, Xia Chiyu and the four of them gathered at the gate of the Valley of Falls, intending to take a look at the skills of the last boss.

"So, how did it turn out yesterday, Fight?" Xia Chiyu turned to the two of them and asked, "I'm sorry, I really don't have the patience to watch you drink to the end, so you went offline and went to bed early." ”

Although drinking in the game is drunk, it will not feel full, so as long as two people can bear it, they can keep drinking. Until the end of the drunkenness is too high, and he falls into a coma or is unconscious.

"Tsk, this guy won." Gu Qinyan hugged his arms and said unhappily, and Reis still said with that smile and groaning: "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, I'm actually almost dead yesterday, it's just a narrow victory, Lord Swordsman doesn't have to mind." ”

", I'll definitely win you next time." Gu Qinyan gritted his teeth and replied.

"It's hopeless." Xia Chiyu shook his head helplessly, and walked towards the door of the copy with them, when a slender and short figure suddenly blocked in front of them.

Xia Chiyu looked down and found that this was a little girl who was at most sixteen years old, with two pigtails, big eyes and watery eyes, pink and fair skin, quite playful and cute, her ID was called "Wanjun", sixty-two, she was a non-real-name player, and the guild she belonged to was "Glacier Fortress". She opened her arms in front of Xia Chiyu, as if she deliberately did not let him pass.

"What's the matter?" Xia Chiyu frowned and said.

"It's the Valley of the Fallen that you've brought through the Stormy Freemasonry for four or five, right?" The little girl asked with a frown.

"No, goodbye." Xia Chiyu waved his hand and said, planning to make a detour with Gu Qinyan and the others.

Wanjun scolded "Liar! ", and then stopped in front of Xia Chiyu: "We will see you and the people who help each other through thick and thin yesterday!" And you're not from their guild! Those three people look stupid, it must be you! ”

Gu Qinyan's eyes in the rear suddenly sharpened, Reis smiled helplessly, and Su Xing gritted his teeth and laughed angrily: "This kid is really rude, he can say such rude words to people who meet for the first time...... Can I teach her a lesson for her parents? ”

"This kid has a good eye." Xia Chiyu touched her head with a smile and said, "Is there something wrong?" ”

However, Xia Chiyu actually knew the other party's purpose, and Lin Qianxue reminded him last night that someone would come to dig him up today.

"We'll want to hire you and help us get a copy!" Wanjun said menacingly, "You can open the price!" (To be continued......)
