Abnormal paradise

The item dropped by the second mantis leader was a strengthening material that increased the damage of the weapon. Neither the master nor Lu Renjia had any idea about the ownership of the material, so Ember took it away as a matter of course. Afterwards, the three began to search the factory, looking for clues that would trigger the next main mission. As a result, Yi Yan found a water quality report in an abandoned office. After a year of darkness, the specific data could no longer be seen clearly, but the final The conclusion is clearly visible——

The water quality has deteriorated so much that production cannot be carried out.

This factory is engaged in beverage filling. If there is an error in the water source, production will naturally be unable to be completed. This leads to the destination of the next main task.

…

Mission name: [Reconstruction] (the fourth link of the main mission)

Requirements: Destroy the large insect nest at Maple Island Water Company

Reward: eight kill points, ownership of a luxury duplex apartment

Introduction: The water quality report left in the factory draws your attention to the drinking water company. Based on the previous reasons, you decide to go there to find out.

[Tip: There are lord-level shadow-eating insects in large insect nests. Multi-person cooperation is strongly recommended. 】

…

"After all this, I still have to go to the drinking water company! Why the water quality in Maple Island is deteriorating rapidly should be directly related to the water quality research institute mentioned in the suicide note. Although no clues about Anna were found here, it is not difficult to think of her. Where will the next stop be?”

Yu Yan understood in his heart, and immediately shared this report with the non-master and Lu Renjia, so that they could also trigger the main mission of the fourth ring.

"This is for you. I just found it in the corner of the workshop."

Um?

Due to past factors, Lu Renjia, who had been silent most of the time, suddenly handed a shiny flame badge to Yu Ember. He hesitated and said in a deep voice: "Although you and I had some grievances before, I still want to thank you. You come to the rescue, this Fire Badge increases life and sanity, it's not of much use to me, so you should keep it."

As he spoke, Lu Renjia pointed to his skull cross, expressing that his positioning was remote output.

"Then our previous account can be considered a write-off?"

"……Um."

"Very good! Let me meet you, my name is Ember!"

"Lu Renjia."

Looking at the two people who formally introduced themselves, the master was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Yu Yan and Lu Renjia had a connection. The Sword Immortal just mentioned it at first. He encountered an abnormal weapon user in the Dark Veil Forest, but he didn't mention it. The first player is Lu Renjia.

After this period of exploration, the little mantis also completely devoured the life source of the two mantis leaders, and quickly got rid of the hazy state at the beginning of its birth. A pair of insect eyes are bright, and the soft sickle blade also has a steel color, although the size has not changed much. , but the thin body has been fleshed out at a speed visible to the naked eye, and its combat capability has initially been formed.

…

Name: [Enhanced Young Shadow-Eating Insect] (Elite/Growth/Binded to player "Ember")

HP: 50/50

Attack level: Normal (12)

Defense level: Weak (6)

Attack speed: Fast

Warning range: normal

Skill: Slash (*2.0)

Introduction: This is a mantis-shaped shadow-eating insect hatched from insect eggs. The life energy contained in its body is enough for it to grow rapidly in a short period of time. If it is always fed with the blood of high-level shadow-eating insects, it will have a high chance of growing. Break through the shackles of life.

[Tip: This creature cannot be taken out of this assessment space. 】

…

Although the little mantis is named an elite, its various attributes are far behind the real mantis elite. However, as long as the food is enough, these are not a problem. The blood infusion of the two mantis leaders alone is enough for it. Crushing ordinary shadow-eating insects, this growth rate makes Ember particularly satisfied.

"Then the question is, should we go straight to the drinking water company next, or clear out some medium-sized insect nests? I think it may be too early to challenge the large insect nests now. There are not only lord BOSS, but also leader-level ones. Young Shadow Eaters are equally tricky, and the risk of acting rashly is too high. It is better to clear out the medium-sized insect nests first, and then obtain some targeting props. It is best to get a few more Fire Badges to be prepared."

The game time officially exceeded an hour, and Yi Yan felt inexplicably that invisible pressure was coming. The location of the abandoned factory was actually very close to the center of the island. Once he went straight to the drinking water company, he would inevitably encounter many players, and various risks would follow one after another. It was inevitable that something like this would happen. For people like Xiao Xifeng who possess special props, although Yi Yan no longer fights alone, the combat ability of the three-person team has not yet been tested, so he hopes to leave some time for Little Mantis to improve his strength.

"It makes sense, I have no objection."

"Where's Lu Renjia?"

"okay!"

Lu Renjia nodded in agreement with some surprise. He did not expect that Yan Yan would specifically ask for his opinion. He could not help but compare Yan Yan with Xiao Xifeng. At least so far, the former's various performances are less reliable than that of the nominal senior player. few.

Let's cooperate...

Who are you not cooperating with?

No matter how you say it, Ember is now number one in the rankings, not much higher than Xiao Xifeng!

Lu Renjia quietly changed his resistance and immediately began to participate in the discussion. The three-person team shared their respective intelligence and quickly formulated a marching route and combat division of labor.

Ember has high defense and good damage, and serves as the main melee tank.

The person whose weapons are swords and shotguns is not a master, but is responsible for assisting Ember and sharing the pressure.

Due to the existence of the abnormal weapon Skull Cross, Lu Renjia, whose development path deviated from the conventional Master, plays a half-output and half-control long-range role.

Although the positioning of the three of them is not the most typical combat magic animal husbandry, at least it has a prototype, and the effect of the thaumaturgy skills displayed by Lu Renjia made Yi Yan shine, allowing the three of them to deal a burst of damage even though their battery life was slightly insufficient. Greatly improved, coupled with the presence of the little praying mantis, Yi Yan felt that even without spider eggs, he could kill the ant leader head-on.

According to the memories of the non-expert, the three people left the factory and rushed to a nearby forest. He had seen a large number of spider webs there and expected that there should be a medium-sized insect nest.

After Yi Yan walked out of the factory gate, he immediately discovered that the surrounding environment had changed dramatically. The plains had disappeared and were densely covered with small rivers. It was very difficult to find a flat piece of land to stay on. It was not until he entered the forest area that things improved.

"The size of the Spider Leader is very different from that of the Spider Insect Mother, and its mobility and combat capabilities have been improved by more than one and a half points. I suggest that if the Spider Leader does not dispatch in advance, then clear out other miscellaneous soldiers first. Otherwise, you can first kill the Spider Leader Lead out the nest and kill it to finish."

Lu Renjia shared his combat experience. Before the arrival of the masters, he helped Xiao Xifeng and others clear the medium-sized insect nest occupied by spiders. It was precisely because of that action that Xiao Xifeng's appearance was so ugly that Lu Renjia suddenly woke up. , this person is not a kind person.

"Okay! Just do as you say!"

Yi Yan made the decision immediately, pushed aside the layers of cobwebs, and took the lead to step into the insect nest area. The non-experts followed closely behind, and protected Lu Renjia with Yi Yan.

Lu Renjia, who has extremely high perception, constantly observed the surrounding investigation situation. After taking a few steps, he immediately issued a battle warning: "Two elites are coming!"

Ember and Not the Master immediately prepared themselves for battle.

swish swish...

From the shaking leaves, two spider elites suddenly rushed out with their teeth and claws. They had been on guard for a long time, and slammed down their active software biochemical arms. While causing 36 points of high damage, it also made the leading elite spider lose its progress. ability.

Those who were not experts pulled the trigger suddenly, sparks bloomed from the shotgun muzzle, and fifteen bullets spurted out. The powerful impact drove away another elite spider, leaving the three of them to deal with only one monster for the time being.

Just at this moment, Lu Renjia completed the casting steps, and a black light flashed on the skull cross. The elite spider that was hit by the headshot fell into a weak state, and its damage and defense were both reduced by 10%, and negative effects such as bleeding and injuries were increased. The probability of appearance and the duration of five seconds completely made this elite spider lose the ability to fight back.

Ember swung out a stick, and combined with the enhanced shotgun, which was not an expert's, they killed the enemy neatly and neatly, and then quickly pounced on the elite spider that was knocked back by the shotgun. After only two seconds, the battle was resolved.

Finally feeling the warmth from his teammates, Yan Yan didn't feel any regrets that he didn't even lose two elite hairs. With his strength, it was no problem to challenge two elite mini-boss alone, but the problem was that he had good strength. Teammates will greatly improve the efficiency of clearing monsters. A battle that takes more than ten seconds for one person can now be completed in less than six seconds, and there is no need to worry too much about someone disrupting the situation.

While sighing that it felt so good to be organized, they continued to move deeper into the insect nest. During this period, there were many young shadow-eating insects in the form of spiders. They went to encircle and suppress the three of them, but they were all easily killed together, down to the miscellaneous soldiers below the leader. Everyone was dead, and the team successfully reached the core area of ​​the spider nest.

Listening to Lu Renjia describe the various details inside the insect nest, a sense of relaxation arises in Yu Yan's heart. At the same time, both experts and Lu Renjia also feel Yu Yan's combat ability, which is a level higher than the two of them, with both offensive and defensive health. Hundreds, only one off-hand shield is needed to become a super-equipped main tank at this stage. Unfortunately, the Ant Mother rarely drops hard-shell shields, and the only one was snatched away by Xiao Xifeng.

"This is the situation. The spider leader is hiding in the corner of the insect nest, preparing to launch a sneak attack when we attack the spider insect mother. My attack range can surpass the spider insect mother and lead it out, so let's deal with the spider leader first?"

"Can."

"Seconded."

Lu Renjia nodded, and immediately under the protection of the embers, he entered the core area of ​​the spider nest. With a dark light spell, he accurately hit the spider leader hiding in the dark. The damage was not much, but he successfully provoked the leader BOSS who was waiting for a sneak attack. When it saw Lu Renjia preparing to escape, it immediately ran out of the nest on eight legs. However, it was directly ambushed by someone who was not an expert. He suddenly swung out a powerful knife and cut off half of the spider's legs in an instant.

The severe pain made the spider leader feel bad, and he hurriedly stopped and tried to retreat to the insect nest. However, the charging ember used huge force to completely separate it from the two spider insect mothers, and almost knocked him down as he watched it crash to the ground. The spider leader of the big tree had a smile on his lips.

It turns out that the feeling of having teammates is so wonderful!
