Abnormal paradise

"Haha, it's another initial batch of ashes. This incident really happened at the right time!"

"Who says it's not the case? Just after two hours, I got four initial copies of the furnace ashes. It's fast, stable and comfortable. You may not be able to get one even if you work hard outside."

"You already have four copies? My third one has just started... I'm really at a disadvantage because I don't have range control. However, if I can stay in the Hearthfire Realm for a whole day, I can also complete my God-Being Ceremony."

"Three servings is good. I only have two servings. Who can I talk to to reason with you?"

At the edge of the inner circle of the Hearthfire Domain, the players flew slightly away from the Black Pearl, a hundred meters apart, to exchange their harvests.

The skills and props they master have a radius of influence on the fire field, which is basically between fifteen and forty meters. The most disparity between the upper and lower limits can be more than three times, and in terms of visual manifestation, that It's even more obvious. After all, to convert the radius difference into an area difference, you have to add a square...

Some players dominate one area and are extremely powerful, while others gather in small groups without affecting the collection efficiency.

At this time, there is no way to regret it. The gaps caused by career, luck, and ability cannot be erased casually.

The players present are all top players, with good quality and comprehensive abilities. At least they have control methods that can affect a large area. The only difference is the size. If you switch to the Chaos Beacon and the world next door, you can even see miserable players using their hands everywhere.

Therefore, the gap is huge, and no player present is mentally unbalanced. However, they will always unconsciously look at the most eye-catching people in the field, the president of the Soul Palace [Soul Song] and the true moon attendant [Lu Renjia].

Based on the abnormal project [Soul-stealing Scythe], Soul Song opened up a realm of blue light and soul-stealing, driving thousands of ghosts to serve it, flying back and forth amidst the roaring sound. In two hours, Jiufen initial furnace has been collected Gray, very fast.

Lu Renjia on the other side did not hesitate to give in. He transformed his own ability into an abnormal weapon [Skull Cross], which made his spells shine. A black light spell with unidentifiable lines was seen fluttering around him. The initial furnace ash within ten meters will be automatically adsorbed.

When the black light of the incantation was completely covered, it also meant that the collection of ashes was completed. Lu Renjia followed up with a second one, and the collection speed was no less than that of Soul Song.

Of course, just like Ember, these two people actually have means to further increase the range of their control abilities. However, the limit range of high-level gods is not forty-nine meters, but only in their early forties. Only by breaking through the god-level Only at the peak can one reach the fifty mark.

For the gap of one or two meters, a lot of resources need to be consumed, and it cannot continue to work. It is really not cost-effective, so the players unanimously made almost unanimous actions.

"Xiao Lu, is Yan Yan coming? If he comes, will he be here in the Ancient God World, or will he go to the Empire World?" Hunge asked again.

"I'm not sure about this, President Hunge. The communication was interrupted and I can't contact Yue Yan." Lu Renjia responded with a smile without hesitation.

Because of the existence of Ember, the relationship between Hunge and Lu Renjia is quite reasonable.

As a veteran player and the president of a first-tier guild, Hunge didn't rely on his seniority. After all, the main members of the guild were not around. Even if he wanted to use his reputation to pressure others, not many would be willing to listen.

The reason why Hun Ge repeatedly inquired about the movements of Ember was because he gradually realized that something was wrong with the limelight. In the past ten minutes, he had sent the detection ghost a thousand meters away, and the strange figure captured was the same as the one five years earlier. A total of ten minutes.

Hunge is keenly aware that the current security environment may turn into a violent storm at any time, hitting players on the head.

If it were normal times, Hunge would not bother to care about the life and death of others, but the current situation is very different. The Black Pearl only brought a few dozen players. Under the predicament of being surrounded by powerful enemies, a "player collective" automatically formed. Although everyone They are all online at a good level, but because of this, it is easy for them to become fragmented and fight on their own. It requires a leader with charisma to come forward to twist everyone into a rope and advance and retreat together.

Hunge boasted that his reputation and strength were both top-notch, but he did not have the confidence to fully control the situation. After all, he and Fish Scale Arm had been old enemies for many years, and many people present were supporters of the latter, so they would definitely not obey his arrangements.

But Ember is different. He is truly the number one player and can take advantage of everything. In addition, the help from Aurora City can at least promote collective cooperation. That's why Soul Song is so concerned about Ember's movements.

Hearing the answer given by Lu Renjia, Hun Ge no longer expected that the number one player would be able to descend from the sky with magic weapons. After a new one detected the ghost and found several strange figures flashing past, he resolutely decided to take it on. Raise a big flag and quickly send a reminder to everyone around you to increase their vigilance in dealing with crises. If you see that the situation is not going well, you will return to the Black Pearl. Don't take it lightly.

"Thank you, President Hunge. We will pay attention."

"Oh~!"

"Hmph, we appreciate President Hunge's kindness, but you should always worry more about yourself. You can fly farther than us!"

Players responded in different ways. Some were sincerely grateful, some were indifferent, and some were sarcastic. Soul Song snorted and didn't pay too much attention. He quickly increased the release of detection ghosts and deliberately returned to the Black Pearl.

As one player said, once a crisis breaks out, top players such as Soul Song and Lu Renjia, who are far away from the Black Pearl, will inevitably bear the brunt. Those who don't care on the surface don't really care, but feel that someone has given them a chance. When used as a shield, the reaction time is completely sufficient.

But these players really underestimate the enemy's methods and determination.

Whoosh!

A ray of black light bypassed the detection methods of Hunge and others, and was as fast as thunder. It penetrated the front line and easily reached five players who were relatively close to each other and formed a vague offensive and defensive alliance.

These five players actually significantly increased their defense level, thinking that by gathering the strength of many people and adding external barriers, they would be safe. Unexpectedly, they were caught off guard.

The dark liquid like ink exploded above the heads of the five people, instantly covering a large area and completely cutting off the sensing channels.

Even Blackbeard, the master of witchcraft on the Black Pearl, could not break through the strange black ink in a short time and get in touch with the five trapped people.

Enemy attack!

Only then did the surrounding players suddenly realize that danger was erupting from around them. Seeing the dark ink coming towards their faces, they subconsciously dodged back, but the sudden burst of wildly dancing tentacles pulled several people into the range of the ink. .

"calm!"

Hunge hurriedly shouted, the more this kind of moment happens, the more necessary it is to deal with it calmly.

Sure enough, the ghost detection successfully captured a fatal sign.

Without hesitation, Hunge laid a curtain of green light in front of him, and immediately after, another ray of black light suddenly entered the field of vision. The speed was not much slower than the first one. If the ghost could not be detected in time, I realize that Hunge may be in trouble!

This line of black light broke through the green light curtain, and his body was tightly entangled by several ghosts. The impact speed dropped significantly, giving Hunge a chance to observe his opponent.

However, when he just saw clearly, the body of the black light was a ferocious sea snake with a completely black body. Several decelerating ghosts disappeared inexplicably. The speed of the black sea snake immediately increased sharply, and it rushed straight in front of Soul Song.

Soul Song, who originally wanted to launch his offensive ability and compete with him, saw this situation and did not dare to be too bold. He temporarily changed his skills and his body exploded automatically, turning into hundreds of transparent ghosts. They fled in all directions and quickly returned to the Black Pearl. Keep distance from the black sea snake.

The black sea snake did not pursue him fiercely. Seeing that it was difficult to kill Soul Song, he immediately changed his target, crossed a hundred meters of void, and slammed into a certain player's protective barrier.

Carrara!

At this stage, the protection methods of top players have absolutely nothing to do with shoddy workmanship. After this black sea snake crashed into the barrier, it lost all momentum and was tightly stuck by the hard barrier.

Xinhuo Seed, who was in the barrier, immediately showed the psychological quality of a top player and quickly tried to counterattack. However, just like Soul Song, the protective barrier that blocked the sea snake disappeared in a large circle for no reason. Instead, the player , due to the switch between offense and defense, there was no time to resist the enemy attack, and he was bitten on the neck by a sea snake and died on the spot.

However, he was not the first player to die.

In the blink of an eye, at least five sneak attacks broke out around the Black Pearl. Only Hunge escaped by chance. The thirteen players affected by the other four sneak attacks all lost their first chance to be revived and appeared in the black in disgrace. On the resurrection deck of the Pearl.

"The situation is not good, please don't act rashly!"

Vice Captain Jones, with a cold and rough face, ordered the players to stay on the ship.

But the fact is that no player dared to leave the safe zone at this time. The other players who were lucky enough to escape the sneak attack were rushing towards the Black Pearl like frightened birds.

Fortunately, the attacker was well aware of the power of the Black Pearl and did not dare to be overly provocative. He immediately fled away after the attack was successful, leaving only the chaotic battlefield with lingering aftermath and the dark ink that was about to dissipate.

Lu Renjia, whose position was also outside Soul Song, was very lucky not to be attacked. When he returned to the deck, he heard Blackbeard ask in a deep voice: "Have you collected any ink?"

"Um."

Lu Renjia nodded slightly, and a spell appeared immediately. Most of the initial furnace ashes that had been absorbed on it had now been blackened by ink, losing its strengthening properties and turning into filthy waste.

This was collected by Lu Renjia at a certain risk and at great cost, because he got a witchcraft inheritance of beneficial spells from Blackbeard, so he knew that the other party would definitely need ink to expand the material. Research.

Captain Jack immediately came closer to his handsome face with smoky makeup, winked at Blackbeard, and said with a smile: "My first mate, it's up to you!"

It was precisely because they saw the weirdness of the ink that the three rotating captains did not rescue people. Today's Black Pearl is not like the original, where the combat masters disembarked early, leaving only a few non-combat system developers.

Therefore, quickly confirming the details of the opponent will help in subsequent response.

Blackbeard had a cold expression and returned the look of disgust, shattering Captain Jack's flirtatious glance.

He took the filthy incantation from Lu Renjia's hand and crushed it with force. Instantly, the remaining ink splashed out, but it was gathered up by black magic one by one. Finally, it was guided and inspired, and turned into a scorpion with teeth and claws. Ink aberration.

"Hiss! God of Distortion! This bastard, the Creator, really has no way to survive!"

Before Blackbeard could say anything, Captain Jack's expression changed immediately when he saw this: "At this time, shouldn't we all be open to the outside world? Why did the Creator send the sixth servant to find trouble?"

The only god of the aberrant clan; the genius who "graduated" with excellent grades in a mud pond; the ancient being who finally forced the fish-men clan to abandon their ancestral land, is the sixth servant of the Creator.

In other words, the Creator took his ancestors as slaves.

But what is certain is that no one dares to openly accuse him of deceiving his master and destroying his ancestors.

Blackbeard smiled coldly: "Why? Only you can ask such a stupid question."

Captain Jack shrugged, his surprised face immediately turned calm: "I just want to express my emotions, can't I? Since we know that it was the God of Distortion who moved his hand, it means that the situation is not the most critical yet. There is no Kingdom of God on earth. The condition for cooperation with the gods is that we can win over some small things at most, and we will not attack the Black Pearl for the time being. Hey, you all can tell us what opponents you have encountered, and you can be more mentally prepared."

After receiving the instructions, the players explained their situations one by one.

It's just that those players who died in the ink didn't know what happened from beginning to end, so they were resurrected back to the Black Pearl.

Soul Song told another dead player about the black sea snake they encountered and the strange phenomena that occurred during the period, making everyone more vigilant.

"Loss of ability for no reason? Well, it's interesting. It seems that the little thing brought by the God of Distortion has not all origins. If you dare to leave the Black Pearl in the future, you'd better be more careful. As for collecting ashes I think it’s better to forget about the free treasures other than that.”

Captain Jack raised his hand and flicked the brim of his hat: "With your ability, you will definitely come back. This captain's mission is to make you rich, not to let you die!"

Hearing this, there was no trace of relaxation on the faces of the players present. The presence of the God of Distortion and a group of powerful enemies would make collecting ashes extremely dangerous, and their chances of resurrection were only three pitiful times. It's simply not romantic enough.

Some players who have not died yet have sufficient confidence. When they notice that the situation has calmed down a little, they try to explore outside little by little. The three-person horsemen who have died once have psychological fluctuations. In the initial choice between ashes and fire treasures, After many hesitations, some chose to continue taking risks, while others simply went offline.

The risks are obviously greater than the benefits, which makes the collective strength of the players compromised and makes it more difficult to deal with external crises.

Hunge saw this in his eyes, and had no choice but to do it. It was a hard-won opportunity for the group of them to follow the Black Pearl and enter the Hearthfire Realm. They couldn't expect too much, but deep down in their hearts, Hunge still hoped. There is an improvement in the situation.

Otherwise, everyone will spend the next period of time in fear.

Ember, who was regarded as the initiator of the turnaround by Hunge, actually didn't think that he could play much role. After all, there were many people who were better than him.

After he learned the general location of the Son of God and the others, he immediately persuaded the dog-headed Nazgul to rush to the location of the Black Pearl to change the embarrassing situation of his mother not being loved by his uncle, and identifying the Black Pearl as the location of the Black Pearl. Resurrection base, as for the Chaos Lighthouse of the Kingdom of God on the ground, that is not considered at all.

As a result, the two Embers, who originally planned to avoid the black monster snake, directly collided with the giant bite god son...
