Chapter 250 Border Barrier
Of course I know that the task level the other party mentioned is definitely difficult. After all, the other party is willing to give up a set of Holy Spirit-level equipment and a large amount of money for this level. However, my purpose is not money, so the Holy Spirit-level equipment is not within my consideration. What I want is the parasites contained in the injections on that guy, and of course it is impossible to obtain this kind of thing simply. After all, the parasites are mostly installed without counter-installation. So, I need his cooperation and cooperate with me to walk the path of truth.
The Gate of Truth in our guild is a special equipment similar to advanced prayer techniques. As long as you stand in front of the door to make a wish, a corresponding task copy will be generated behind the door. As long as your strategy copy is successful, you can achieve your wish. This function can be said to be quite awesome. Although the efforts and what you get are essentially one to one, in reality, what everyone pays and what you get are often not corresponding. Our efforts are often more than rewards, because what you do cannot always be correct. When your method or process is wrong, in the end, it will be useless work or a lot of things to do. In addition, the interference of external factors will also affect the ratio of your efforts to rewards. However, in the Gate of Truth, all this is not a problem. The tasks generated by the Gate of Truth are to correspond to your wishes, so your direction is always correct. As long as you can get to the end, there will be rewards.
Of course, the possibility of failure of a task also exists, and the failure rate is not low, but this is based on your wish. If you make a wish that is impossible, the task will naturally be difficult to complete. So, overall, the Gate of Truth is a relatively reliable existence.
In fact, theoretically speaking, even if I don’t buy this guy, I stand in front of the gate of truth and say that I want that injection, the gate of truth will generate a task and really prepare an injection for me. But the problem is that the task corresponding to this out of nothing is absolutely scary and difficult, and even I dare not try it easily. So, I finally chose to buy this guy, and then my wish can go from getting a tube of injection out of thin air to obtain a method or tool for reverse parasitic processes, and such a wish will be significantly less difficult. Even if I want to reduce the difficulty one step closer, I can specify a one-time extraction tool. This way, because the required items are simplified, the task difficulty will decrease.
After the other party reached a cooperation agreement with me, I explained the cooperation method to him. First, we signed a system guarantee agreement. According to the content of the agreement, we must first find a way to return to Aisinger, and then I will find a way to obtain parasites from him, but it cannot affect the functions of the parasites on him. During this process, neither of us shall disclose the cooperation content to the outside world. And after the agreement is completed, I cannot disclose the source of the parasites. The validity period of the entire agreement is only three days. If I cannot extract the parasites after three days, the agreement will still be completed by the other party.
Because the agreement was written in detail, the other party signed it happily after reading it. I smiled and shook hands with him and said, "Happy cooperation."
The other party shook hands with me obviously awkwardly, and then asked, "You only have three days. Do you have time to go back?"
"Of course, who do you think I am?" After I finished speaking, I directly confirmed the direction, then put away most of the magic pets and summoned the birds. "Come on, you should know this, right? With him, it will only take seven or eight hours to fly back to China, let alone we just need to fly to Egypt."
"Your guild also has a stronghold in Egypt?"
"It's no secret. Our city has a teleportation channel. Many tourists-type players teleport from Aisinger to the transit there and then go to visit the pyramids in Egypt."
"Your Frost Rose Alliance is so exaggerated!"
"Is this an exaggeration? You have never seen the real exaggeration of our guild. Okay, come up first, then slow down and you will see the special monsters here."
Bear crawled towards the bird and asked, "What monster?"
"That's that." I said and pointed forward, so Bear Claw saw the huge creature that was constantly jumping out of the sand and quickly approaching us not far ahead. "The demonized sand silkworm, a level 750 demonized creature, is not strong in combat, but has a very disgusting ability, and is very numerous. But this is not the point. The point is that there is a certain chance of these guys being born with a lord-level creature, the desert lord, which is a level 1,500 creature, and there are also a lot of it. Of course, the ability is even more disgusting."
"Then let's get it!" Bear Claw, who had no fighting spirit, was actually very timid. This guy faced me so bravely before, just because he suddenly gained strength, and now that he has recovered from calmness, his usual personality has been revealed.
Of course, I don’t want to fight those disgusting sand silkworms. Although the combat power of these things is not very good, they have several annoying characteristics. They like to swallow people in one bite and then drill into the sand. Even if you can dig a hole in its belly, you will find that you are already in a very deep underground. If you don’t have the ability to dig holes, you will probably be trapped and killed in the ground. However, even if you have a way out, there is actually no benefit, because sand silkworms are almost impossible to be killed. The vitality of these guys is similar to earthworms, but they are more abnormal, that is,
It is cut only to the point where it is left and can continue to survive. Because it usually does not completely leave the sand surface, only part of its body will be exposed, so in most cases, your attack on it can only hurt part of its body. Once this guy is too serious, he will run away, and then you will find that you have worked hard for a long time to fight without any benefits, neither experience nor equipment, and the only thing you get is a piece of sour and smelly disgusting mucus. Therefore, although this thing is not strong in combat, it is known as the number one in the most hateful creatures players in desert areas.
Although the sand silkworm was disgusting, this guy couldn't fly, so we successfully avoided those things after taking off. In fact, the sand silkworm didn't even have eyes and could not see anything at all. Their hunting relies on the fluff on their bodies to sense the vibration of the ground to determine the target position, so as long as they fly, it is equivalent to being invisible in the sight of the sand silkworm.
After successfully leaving the area where the sand silkworm is located, we flew directly towards the nearest Egyptian border. At the current speed, we should be able to reach there soon. However, there is an isolation belt on the border between countries, and Ethiopia and Egypt are also two countries, so this isolation belt still exists.
Because it is a desert country, the isolation belt between these two countries naturally has desert characteristics. In fact, this isolation belt is a sandstorm coverage area with a width of 150 kilometers. The intensity of the sandstorm in this area is like a crusher. Most people only have bones left after five minutes of entering. Moreover, these 150 kilometers are absolutely forbidden flight areas. After all, the strong winds of more than ten levels are blowing around east, west, south and north. Even the dragon cannot fly!
"Huh? You're here to the isolation belt so soon?" Seeing the dust storm belt in front of me, the bear claw sitting beside me shouted excitedly.
To be honest, although sandstorms are very harmful, they are actually very spectacular when viewed from the outside. Of course, if you need to go in, it would not be very good. Now we need to hike through this sandstorm belt. What’s even more terrible is that you can never fly in this area, and sometimes you have to be on all sides, because even so, you may still be swept up high by the strong wind.
"The bird is a jet flight system. It is normal to have a fast speed. But it will take a lot of effort to get there in the next 150 kilometers!"
"Are you sure we're going to hike over?" Bear Claw obviously didn't want to enter this isolation zone because such a place was too dangerous for him. Of course, I'm talking about him before, but now he should be fine.
"I had many ways to pass through here, but because you were there, I had to hike."
"Why don't you believe me if I'm here?"
I pointed my finger and counted him: "First, the width of the sandstorm belt is only 150 kilometers, and my directional coordinate-free teleportation maximum distance is 138 kilometers. I can teleport to the edge of the sandstorm at one time. Then I will be OK if I have a short-distance teleportation. Second, although the width of the sandstorm area is 150 kilometers, the height is only 20,000 meters. The limit ceiling of the flying bird is 28,000 meters. I can fly from above, but after I take myself, the maximum ceiling of the flying bird is only 22,000. If you can't even fly 18,000, so if you take you, you can't fly. Third, my magic pet Night Shadow has entered the range of biological thinking waves for the scope of the biological thinking wave.
The ability to jump around, but you can only take me to jump together, you can't get in. Finally, I have a magic pet who is good at digging holes. It's not a big deal for him to open a 150-kilometer-long passage from under the ground. But this is a desert, so the passage opened will collapse and there is no way to form a stable passage, so the only thing that can pass through is himself. I can temporarily switch the position with my magic pet, so his passing is equivalent to me, but I don't know how to get you over. So, the only way I can think of now is to tie us together and then I will take you over. Although it's a little slower, it's at least feasible."
After hearing what I said, Bear Claw was obviously quite depressed, of course it was not because I deliberately belittled him. On the contrary, what he was depressed was that I told the truth. Although he successfully parasitized that unknown super parasite, what he improved was only environmental adaptability and combat power. In some aspects, he still could not compare with an all-round summoner like me.
"This is for you." After landing on the ground, I took out a rope from my body and handed one of them to the other party. "Tie it on my body and tie it tightly. If you are blown away by the wind, this is your only safety guarantee."
"Can this thing stand it?" Bear claw asked, looking at the rope as thick as a small finger in his hand.
"Don't underestimate this thing. This is not public supplies, it is equipment, the Holy Spirit level."
When Bear Claw heard that this thing was actually the Holy Spirit level, he immediately picked up the rope in surprise and asked, "Is this thing a Holy Spirit level? A Holy Spirit level rope?"
"Believe it or not, it's a Holy Spirit-level rope anyway."
“I just want to know what the difference is between the Holy Spirit-level rope and the one I bought at the grocery store.”
"Difference? It has strong tensile resistance. This one in your hand can be used for tugs directly, which is stronger than the chain behind the anchor. It is also lighter. The rope weighs only fifteen kilograms, which is considered a very light rope. Oh yes. The most powerful ability of this thing is this." I took out a device about the size of a melon in the middle of the rope and showed it to him. "This rope comes with a wire retractor, and both ends can be retracted and placed freely. Don't look at this thing just a little big, with a compression space inside. After you release it, the rope can be up to five kilometers long, which is definitely enough for you. Moreover, if you fix both ends of the rope, this thing can also be used as a pulley. Holding it can slide from one end of the rope to the other end, even uphill."
"This is really an amazing rope!" Bear claw sighed and flexibly tied the rope in his hand on his body. It seemed that this guy often played with ropes. After tying the rope, Bear claw looked up and saw my strange gaze. He quickly explained with a red face: "I used to be a sailor. Sailors on sailboats, and knowing how to use ropes is a basic skill!"
"You don't need to explain, I understand, I understand."
"What's your look? You clearly don't understand."
"Believe me. I really understand." I deliberately patted the other person's shoulder and said, "If you tie it up, come with me."
Fix the other end of the rope on my body first. Then I walked into the dust storm area first. To be honest, the dust storm isolation belt in the game is not designed particularly abruptly, and its peripheral area is not particularly dangerous. Although once you step into the dust storm area, the wind power within the five hundred meters outside starts from level 5. Then it continues to increase as it moves inward, and finally upgrades to a terrifying storm that can tear the human body apart. Of course, the most dangerous thing in the sand storm is not the wind, but the flying sand. These sands move densely at high speed in the air, and the effect is
It is similar to sandpaper or grinding wheel. It has a very terrifying grinding and cutting ability. As soon as our equipment enters this area, it will start to lose durability. Most equipment will start to have problems after not long. After that, once the equipment is durable, the player will lose all defenses and start to use his body to resist sandstorms. At this time, the high-speed moving sand particles will peel off the flesh of your body bit by bit like someone rubbing sandpaper on you crazy. This terrifying effect is even more terrifying than Lingchi. After all, Lingchi is at least cut by one knife, which is completely scratching!
After entering the dust storm area, I began to bend down and move forward little by little, and the bear claw quickly entered the dust storm. However, what he used to resist sand and dust was not armor but his own biological shell. This biological shell can be regenerated and it is very fast, so this thing is actually the most suitable way to protect against sand and dust storms. However, according to what I asked from him along the way, this thing is actually not really infinitely regenerating, but requires the consumption of magic to support it.
In fact, the biggest difference between this parasite after successful parasite parasite and failure is that after successful parasite parasite, it consumes magic power, and the parasite that fails consumes experience and attribute values. Magic can be regenerated. Although the experience and attribute values can also be increased, the difficulty is much higher than the magic recovery. Therefore, the failed parasite will only quickly consume the player's experience value and make his account scrapped. Although the explosive power after successful parasite is insufficient, it is due to stability and long-lasting and no side effects.
After entering the dust storm area, Bear Claw immediately adjusted his appearance. Because it was perfect parasitic, he could adjust his appearance at will. In the end, this guy made himself look a bit like a turtle. Four short legs and a huge back armor were paired with this shape, which was very suitable for the environment of this place. Short legs meant to be close to the ground, so the wind resistance was small, and the thing like the big pot lid on the back played a role in resisting sand and grinding. However, even if it turned into this form, it was not absolutely safe.
The isolation zone on the national border line does not only have the threat of natural environment, otherwise with the wisdom of the players, they can definitely think of ways to solve those rigid natural disasters. In order to deal with this situation, the system directly added multiple composite natural disasters to the border line, and also added an existence similar to level ss to block everyone's action route, so that the variables in the blockade line will increase, and players will not be able to deal with this ever-changing blockade line and can only choose to go through the channel set by the system, or consider other methods.
The main method of blockade in this sandstorm zone is sandstorm, and the sand on the ground is actually the second method of blockade, because this is not a simple sandy land, but quicksand.
"Woo..." As the guy walked, he suddenly found that his body began to sink. No matter how he moved, he couldn't pull out his legs. Then the guy twisted desperately and hoped to get him out. Who knew that it would be fine if he didn't move, but he fell faster when he moved. Soon the sand had completely swallowed his four legs, and the sand surface had risen below his neck. He had encountered this situation and wanted to ask for help, but he had no choice but to drink a mouthful of sand and could not shout out anything.
This guy was lucky, and a rope was tied between us. Although the guy's humming sound was covered by the wind, the rope suddenly straightened and pulled me. As I felt the rope straightened, I knew something was wrong. When I looked back, I found that there was only a hemispherical turtle shell left on the ground, and most of the guy's body was already trapped in the sand.
"What a fool!" Looking at the bear claws that were already trapped in the quicksand, I helplessly summoned the Trail Blazer to hold him from below. Then I pushed it out. "Are you idiot? Have you seen what the desert creature looks like? It turned into a turtle. Why don't you change into a fish?"
"I..." Bear claw, who opened his mouth again, took another bite of sand. Then he immediately fell silent.
Because the helmet on the armor is completely closed, my words here are not affected at all. "Don't you, me, hurry up and change your style."
The guy Bear Claw was scolded by me for a long time and finally became smart once. He directly applied to form a team with me. Although we had reached an agreement before, both sides did not establish a team. The main reason is that this guy felt it was awkward to form a team with me, so he never formed a team. Anyway, we are not doing tasks, and it is no big deal to form or not, so I didn't care about him. Now this guy can't hold it in himself.
After clicking to confirm, the guy's voice immediately appeared in the team channel. "Tell me what I can become? The environment in this place is so harsh. If I don't become like this, wouldn't I cause trouble for myself?"
"You are not convinced when you say you are stupid. The sand is soft, and there are only two ways to not sink. Either make a wide sole to disperse the pressure. Or make a sharp long legs like a scorpion. Although your feet will fall into the sand every time you lower your feet, the sharp long legs can be easily pulled out, so you don't have to worry about sinking in. Also, if you want to resist the sandstorm, you don't have to use a shell to block it! It's okay to get a layer of soft hair!"
"this……"
Bear Claw really had nothing to say this time. He originally wanted to argue, but now he has to admire him. At least he didn't expect to use soft hair to resist the cutting effect of gravel.
Although these gravels can hit the surface of objects at a high speed and have the same effect as sandpaper polishing, if they are soft hair, you don’t have to worry about this at all, because the hair is soft. After the gravel hits it, the hair will deform and consume the impact force. In this way, there will be no strong friction effect without a hard collision, and naturally there will be no rapid erosion of the surface. Therefore, using soft hair to block the sandstorm's polishing effect is actually more effective and easier than a hard shell.
The bear claws learned the lesson quickly changed itself into a big crab with long hair this time. This time, the guy directly turned himself into a big crab with long hair. The crab's legs are the same as those of a scorpion. Although it will easily sink in the sand, once it sinks deep enough, the deep sand will squeeze the invasion to ensure sufficient support. Because the legs are slender enough, it does not take much effort to pull it out again. At the same time, the eight long legs can ensure that there are at least four points to support the ground at the same time, which can disperse the pressure, so that it will not be easy to sink. As for the hair on the body, of course, it was modified according to my idea.
"How is it? Didn't you lie to you? Is this structure much easier to use than just now?" I asked again, looking at the bear claws that have turned into long-haired crabs.
Bear claw admitted, "It's really good. OK, let's go quickly. I always feel a little unsafe in this place, as if someone is always staring at us."
After hearing Bear Claw's words, I asked with a surprise: "You can actually feel it."
"What's wrong?" Bear claw looked at me in surprise and asked, "Is there really something nearby?"
I nodded and said, "I thought you couldn't find it, but now I seem to underestimate you."
Chapter completed!
