Cold wind blew. Fighting through the howling wind and dense snow, I quickly cleared out all nearby Snow Wolves. I looked in the direction of Hundred Flower Valley and said, ”Let's go, we can enter the quest map now!”
”Mn!”
Everyone walked carefully. If even the monsters on the perimeter were Level 80, we could not imagine what level the monsters inside were, but one thing was certain—there would be many powerful elites!
……
Our robes fluttered in the wind. I stepped into the Hundred Flower Valley, scenery around me suddenly changing. I seemed to enter another world. The wind and snow vanished. The flowers bloomed in the warmth. This was completely different from the outside, as though there was some kind of boundary separating the two worlds!
”Wow...”
The girls followed in. Beiming Xue said, ”The scenery here is so beautiful! No wonder it's called Hundred Flower Valley, so beautiful...”
Lin Yixin nodded. ”Yes, it's very beautiful. Icy plains outside, but eternal spring here. What could that mean?”
I said gravely, ”This means that Hundred Flower Valley is not safe, and even has hidden dangers.”
”Why so?” He Yi asked.
I smiled. ”The Aranya Temple of A Chinese Ghost Story was desolate, but there were pavilions and towers with many beauties. What does that mean? Something so uncharacteristic can only mean something is wrong. This place is not simple. The monsters inside might be much stronger than the ones outside!”
”Yes!”
Lin Yixin nodded cautiously and said, ”Everyone, be careful. We traveled far to get here. Don't get killed instantly.”
”Yes, move out!”
I walked at the front, along the path, entering through the valley entrance. The moment I formally stepped into the valley, the system bell rang—
Ding~!
System Notice: You have entered a mysterious region—Hundred Flower Valley!
……
d.a.m.n, a mysterious region?
I was speechless and opened the small map. I found that the structure of Hundred Flower Valley was like a sheep's intestine, extremely twisted and winding. The destination had snow-capped mountain ranges on both sides. The difficulty was one that present players could not handle. In a sense, it was an insurmountable zone but because we needed the Frost s...o...b..ll, we had to fight our way through it!
Seeing the map's layout, Lin Yixin was excited, her eyes wide. She smiled. ”Haha, it seems like there may be high-rank herbs here!”
“Good luck!” I said.
Then me and my Dark Wasp proceeded forward. After about ten meters, I saw no monsters and was curious. I turned back to look and said, ”Why aren't you summoning your pets?”
He Yi laughed softly. ”My Wasp is almost Level 70 but only has 400 attack power. If we encounter Level 70 or 80 monsters, they won't be able to defend, why even let them out...”
Lin Yixin nodded. ”Yes, my Fire Blade can't keep up with the demand. I'm too lazy to summon it. Its attack power is not even 700, it can only deal a dozen damage each time. It's just too embarra.s.sing to show in public...”
Murong Mingyue smiled. ”Only Lu Chen's Dark Wasp is likely useful. A boss-tier pet like that can break through the mobs' Defense...”
I looked at the Dark Wasp and almost cried. ”In reality, the Dark Wasp is much more useless. It can kill normal monsters, but it can't pierce through the Defense of bosses. In the end, it only diverts attacks...”
Beiming Xue laughed softly. ”At this time, as the elite monsters become more common, players' levels can't keep up anymore. If I'm correct, the super cities will be opened soon. With them, new pets with new tiers should be introduced too.”
”That's right!”
I agreed wholeheartedly and continued forward.
Suddenly, He Yi darted forward and grabbed my shoulder, exclaiming, ”Careful, something's coming!”
”Oh?”
I followed in the direction of He Yi's finger and heard rustling from the gra.s.ses. Something was quickly coming through the gra.s.s. As expected, something appeared!
”Let me!”
I swung the Purgatory Sword and activated Charge. I did not lock onto the target, but judged the direction and speed of the target's movements to target the location it would reach in 0.5 seconds. Otherwise, if I locked onto it for Charge, the possibility of a MISS would be much higher. It was strategy. Sometimes, fights were won with brains, not brawn. Without brains, some players would be at a disadvantage.
Whoos.h.!.+
I turned into an afterimage and separated the gra.s.s. With a bang, I locked onto the target and swung my sword down!
Crack!
