Chapter Seventy-Four: A Desperate Situation
Walking across the suspended stone bridge, you will arrive at the mountain behind the Xunshan Monastery.
It's a little more dilapidated than before, with a few secluded caves that don't know where they lead.
Marven's heart moved slightly, and he observed it carefully, and found that the cave in the center was often frequented.
The rest of the entrances, the floor is covered with dust, and it seems that no one has moved in a long time.
The entire back mountain, as far as she knew, was secluded by the sword master Conn.
I guess that's it.
After all, this is not Fanan, it is the Dead Continent, the most deserted place in the world.
With a hint of awe, Marven rushed in directly without relying on the dark vision. Instead, he lit a candle and walked slowly into the cave.
The person who can talk to Professor Chi Bronze Dragon on the same level is naturally not a mortal.
Marven knows a little about Xunshan Monastery, and he has naturally heard of Kang'en, a master of swordsmanship.
……
The Dead Continent is a brand new expansion that was only released in the late game, and as soon as the continent opened, it attracted a large number of players to gather here.
Although the Dead Realm is desolate, it is full of monsters, and it has many valuable minerals, plants, and even ghosts that Fernan lacks.
Players have always been characters who are not afraid of heaven and earth, and in the eyes of the aborigines, the place of exile is a virgin land worth exploring and digging.
At that time, the influence of the Cataclysm in Fernan was gradually waning, and with the help of the Children of Gold, the city-state was gradually prospering.
And the gods also have their own territory in Feinan, although they have not fully established themselves, except for a very few fallen gods. They all have their own spokesmen and certain believers in the world. The strength of the players gives them a headache, and they work together. Opened the door to the Dead Realm, trying to distract the greedy and powerful Children of Gold.
At the same time on the Dead Continent. There is also a force that is worthy of their fear.
They want to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf, weakening their enemies.
As a result, the players were in Dead Domain, and sure enough, they ran into a lot of trouble. Many of the trade union forces that pioneered the dead realm have suffered heavy losses!
Because the object of their development is Xunshan Monastery!
They accepted the mission of the Winter God of the Northlands and pushed the Xunshan Monastery as a copy of the Crimson Monastery.
The results can be imagined......
After the battle between the two sides, players discovered that this easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack mountain is not only rugged, but also full of formations and runes.
What drove them even more crazy was. On the surface, there were only about two dozen warrior monks in the Xunshan Monastery, but in fact, when the Great War began, many of the warrior monks who were cultivating in other parts of the Dead Continent rushed back.
This place is simply the Shaolin Temple of the Dead Domain. Not only the hidden dragon and crouching tiger, but also has a long history.
In the first three days of the war, there were more than 200 warrior monks who rushed back, at least all of them were quasi-legends! Among them, there are more than 10 legendary warrior monks!
These little-known legendary warrior monks, no one knows where they are hiding on weekdays, but when the Xunshan Monastery is attacked. They stood up for the first time.
The players who took the task complained bitterly.
Even if there were some legends among the players at that time, they were definitely not the opponents of the Xunshan Monastery with a strong foundation!
The first wave of their carefully prepared offensive was crushed.
Angry players went straight to the God of Winter and accused him of posting the wrong quest information. The god of winter is nothing more than a guy with medium divine power, and the deity does not dare to come to Fanan. was blocked by a group of lawless sons of gold, and immediately complained bitterly.
Under pressure from the players, especially the guild players, the Winter God had to change his promise. Not only did he promise a higher reward, but he also sent a divine power clone to the Dead Continent. Help the Children of Gold defeat the "evil" Xunshan Monastery.
At that time, the scene was huge. There have also been a number of related posts on the players' forums.
After all, this is the first major collaboration between a human player and the gods of the Rising Age of the Third Age.
Most people are not optimistic about Xunshan Monastery, just a group of warrior monks, in front of the players' crowd tactics, is it still dead?
However, the second attack still ended in failure.
The reason is that the sword master who lives in seclusion in the mountain behind the Xunshan Monastery has made a move!
Conn only stabbed him, and the doppelganger of the God of Winter was shattered.
The players were dumbfounded. Morale collapses directly!
It was only at this time that they realized that the Xunshan Monastery was not at all an evil existence in the mouths of the gods, nor was it a copy, but a great trouble in the hearts of the gods.
At the same time, the conspiracy of the God of Winter and several other gods of the Northland was revealed by the [Last Valkyrie], and everyone was furious, and the unlucky God of Winter was directly demolished by the players.
At that time, the cataclysm had already been created, and the cooperation between humans and the gods was not uncommon, but the players still did not like the gods very much. In addition, although it has been a long time since the incident of the destruction of Rocky Mountain, it has still become a problem for the old players who were not able to participate in the legendary level battle at that time, and the memories of the various bad behaviors of the gods came to mind, coupled with the fanning of a group of people on the forum, and soon, the third "wave of god extermination" came.
The Children of Gold spontaneously gathered together to systematically eliminate some of the weaker gods, especially the supporters of the Valkyries, and even went crazy to trouble the major temples of the Northland.
The gods are powerful, but the sheer number of players, especially many of them who are powerful and terminally ill, are their nemesis.
Marven clearly remembered that in the "Third Wave of God Destruction", at least four gods were destroyed in the foundation of the human world, and the god of winter was even more severely injured and almost fell asleep.
And the fuse of this qiē is the powerful and low-key force of the Dead Domain-Xunshan Monastery.
Marven didn't participate in this qiē at that time, he was still playing hide-and-seek with Glenos, and was preparing for the final god-sealing ceremony.
However, the strength of Xunshan Monastery impressed him deeply.
In particular, the second assault on the monastery. Only the sword master Kang En showed his hand, the legendary Cloud Climbing Monk who was comparable to the Great Elf King. It's still the dragon that sees the head but doesn't see the end. Marven was particularly curious about how strong this peerless powerhouse was, but no one knew what he looked like. Whether it is still alive or not.
And all kinds of legends have been handed down.
From that day on, the Dead Continent became a forbidden place for the gods. The powerful gods of the Third Age did not dare to set foot in that ancient and mysterious land.
……
In the dark cave, the candle flame began to flicker.
At this end of the memory, a fragrant breath poured into Marven's nose, and he only felt that his mind had become much clearer.
It's actually sandalwood.
Sandalwood, which is common in the temple of the warrior monks, did not expect that there is still one here.
A faint light shone in from above the cave, and there seemed to be a cave inside.
A free and easy shadow. Sit leisurely by a pool of water.
Knife master Conn.
He had his back to Marven and did not have a knife in his hand.
"Very few people can find it here." Conn said casually, "How did you hide from those monks?" ”
"No one can hide from them." Marven smiled slightly: "I'm here to deliver the letter, Prince Conn." ”
In an instant, the entire cave became extremely cold.
The originally calm and waveless pool water fluctuated suddenly, and a little pool water splashed over and flew directly in front of Marven's eyes!
Marven didn't blink his eyes.
However, in the next second, he felt a cold breath on his face, followed by a hot pain.
Blood. It ran down his face.
"Sorry...... I didn't control zhì good feelings. ”
After a long time, Conn was silent: "For many years, no one called me that. ”
Marven smiled lightly on the surface: "Although some things have passed, it doesn't mean that everyone will forget them." ”
Conn nodded. Let Marven step forward and deliver the professor's letter.
Marven breathed a sigh of relief.
His own adventurous move just now was just to deepen the weight in the heart of this sword master.
Really want to get something good. It depends on what the professor says in the letter.
After all, although there are few people who know Conn's identity, there are always a few people in this world.
The prince of the dead country. A genius of martial arts, an exiled wanderer...... And sinners who fall in love with their own stepmothers.
These identities are like shackles. The first half of Kang's life was very difficult, and it wasn't until he found himself in swordsmanship that he was relieved.
He has lived in seclusion in Xunshan all these years, not because he doesn't want to do anything, but because he has nothing to do.
The former enemies have been killed, the woman they love has died, and the old country is gone. There was no place for him.
If you think about it carefully, this master of swordsmanship is also a poor person.
Perhaps only such a person can have a transcendent state of mind, and be able to look directly at the gods high above as an aborigine.
……
In the cave, there was silence.
Only the sound of water droplets can be heard from time to time.
Conn read the entire letter quietly, and Marven stood aside, observing Conn's expression.
The master of the sword technique is very handsome and handsome, and although there is a scar on his face, it does not detract from his grace in the slightest.
At his level, it is actually very easy to eliminate a scar, and the reason why he doesn't have it is just because this scar has a special meaning for him.
Thinking of this, Marven couldn't help but sigh slightly in his heart: "Woe to the water."
After reading the letter, Conn fell into a long period of thought.
Marven wasn't in a hurry, just waited.
After a long time, Conn came to his senses and said to himself, "What is it that makes the professor feel the crisis?" ”
"The world is about to change? Isn't the outside world changing every day? ”
Marven was silent. Perhaps for the people in the cave, he was indifferent to what had become outside.
But after a while of talking to himself, Conn finally got back to the point.
His gaze looked Marven up and down, and finally said:
"You don't know how to use swords."
Marven said respectfully, "Please ask the master for advice." ”
"What will you do?" Conn asked.
Marven thought for a moment and said simply, "Kill." ”
Conn laughed, "Okay." Very frankly. I have a sword technique, which is very suitable for people like you to practice. ”
"The name of this sword art is called [Desperate Situation]."
"Come with me."
