Chapter 710 – Enemy from Afar (2/2)
Dong Cheng waved her staff, and activated [Magma Lance]. The Gravedigger Demon wailed and fell to the ground, and dropped a pair of Emperor Tier leather wrist guards. There wasn’t much use for it so I threw it into my bag. Later, I’ll sell it in National Beauty.
We killed another group of Gravedigger Demons before we finally entered the Spirits of No Return Valley. As soon as we stepped in, the wails and screams of lost spirits filled our ears. There were countless soldier spirits that couldn’t leave and had gathered in this one map. At the same time, countless Gravedigger Demons, Hellhounds and other Hybrid Demons appeared in the valley. One after another we killed them all, without any worries at all.
……
We dripped the oil onto a pile of bones and then backed away from it. The materials were part of the quest items that Luo Si had given to us. After I finished that up, I looked at Dong Cheng and said, “Light it up.”
Dong Cheng obediently opened her palm and used a Level 1 Skill, [Magic Flame]. “Hua La!” the remains lit on fire and was turned into a pile of ashes in the blink of an eye.
As we continued forward, we looked for the next target. We roamed the valley looking for monsters to kill. We didn’t let a single one go. Thankfully, the valley wasn’t very big. We could kill all of the monsters here within three hours.
In the blink of an eye, close to two hours had passed. The monsters in the valley had basically all been cleared out.
Brother Xiao Yao, there’s a Gravedigger Demon over there. Hurry up and kill it!” Qing Qian yelled over to me from a distance.
I charged over, but when I was halfway there, a silver armored figure caught my eye. A little general riding on a white battle horse charged and stabbed the Gravedigger Demon. After several charges and stabs, the Gravedigger Demon’s head was filled with holes. It huffed as it stood there and said, “D*mn*d b*st*rd….”
“Huh?” Wan Er was stunned, “There’s someone else who also took this quest?”
I nodded. This youngster in the silver armor was an NPC. Above its head floated the words, “Tian Ling City Xia Yu Armry Forty Seventh Halberd Wielder Luo Heng”. It seems that his rank was slightly higher than the Uncle Luo Si the Lieutenant.
As I walked over, the little general glanced at me and immediately saluted me, “Sir adventurer, I am the halberd wielding guard of the Bridge of Fate. Lieutenant Luo Si is my father. I heard that you have taken up this quest. However, I was afraid that something would happen to you and so I came here to help. However, it looks that you have not let my father down!”
I smiled, “Yes, thank you for your help. We can finish this quest.”
Luo Heng replied, “Yes. Allow me to help you kill a few evil spirits!”
“Alright!”
……
Luo Heng patted his horse and continued forward. We continued to finish the last bit of our quest.
After twenty minutes, we reached the end of the valley. We left a trail of smoky remains in our wake. I raised my bloody Dragon Reservoir Sword and happily stood at the end of the valley I was filled with pride, and saw how far we had come as players!
Right at that moment, Wan Er suddenly charged at me and pulled the reigns of my horse into a hidden forest, “There are people here!”
……
I pressed my body along my horse’s back and looked up. As she had said, a group of five people had entered the valley. They had come from the west. Furthermore, the knight player that stood at the head of the team hung a bloody human head from his horse. As I looked closer, it was the head of Luo Si’s son! He… he was killed?
Suddenly, I felt a fiery anger boil in my stomach!
“F*Ck!” I cursed.
Qing Qian softly said, “Brother Xiao Yao, be careful. Those aren’t Chinese players….”
When I looked over, I realized she was right. The British flag that floated beside the first player’s head confirmed that——
Smile LV 123 Heavenly Spirit Knight
City: Moon City
Guild: Thunder Gods
Position: Guildmaster
……
I nearly broke a tooth from how hard I was clenching my teeth. I gripped the hilt of my Dragon Reservoir Sword, “The British, they’ve already entered our territory!”
