Chapter 2375 (1/2)

”Now, no matter why the other party is going to our destination, it has been a long time. What we need is not to delay here, but to get there quickly, right?” Asked the son of the night.

His words remind us. I nodded directly and said, ”let's speed up to our destination. I hope the other party's purpose has no impact on our mission.”

Ashford was more worried and said, ”actually, I think the other party's purpose is probably related to us.”

”How can you be so sure?”

Before Ashford came and answered, Alice, who was next to him, helped him and said, ”we're talking about experience. In fact, we have tried this task many times, almost every time because of the interference of other players. In addition to the hope that your ability can produce some help, the more important thing is to hope that ziri president's reputation can shock some people and let them retreat voluntarily

”Disturbed by other players?” I was a little surprised and asked, ”what is the specific situation?”

”I don't know for a while. In short, we are disturbed by people every time, so we can't finish the task. I feel that the task is to use the players around us to set various interferences for us. The monsters in the task are not any threat.”

”It's a deadly task.” I said and then urged: ”well, don't stand silly, time is pressing, can't delay. Everybody's quick. Let's run. ”

”All right, all run. Don't delay.” Ashford followed me and gave orders. Alice and the tank immediately began to turn around and move towards their destination. As for Al, he jumped out first.

The son of the night is a teleport forward. In terms of the speed of a single person's movement, he is actually the fastest. As for Kristina, although she is a mage, she is now in melee mode, so the speed is pretty good.

Although most of the attributes of advanced players are inclined, they are senior personnel after all, and all the attributes are not too low. As a result, our average speed is very fast. Running in the woods is not about your physical strength. Of course, physical strength is one of the important factors, but more important is your reaction ability. In such a dense forest, it is impossible for you to go straight ahead. You must constantly turn left and right to avoid the big trees in front of you. You should also occasionally lower your head to drill through some low branches or dead trees lying there. Moreover, you must pay attention to what is buried under the withered branches and leaves all over the ground. Sometimes it's just soft leaves, but sometimes it's quite big rocks, and sometimes there are some aggressive animals hiding under the leaves. Of course, I think the real threat is the mud puddles. I don't know why there are always some mud pits like swamps in the woods. The surface of these mud pits is buried by fallen leaves, which is almost impossible to find without stepping on them. If you walk normally, if you step on it empty, you will turn around and climb out. Anyway, you are on the edge of the mud pit. It is not difficult to think of it. But once it's running, it's a different story. With our physical strength, once we run, we are naturally very fast. We often step out four or five meters away. This is still to avoid the trees and dare not speed up. But at such a speed, we were at least three meters away from the shore when we found it was a mud pit. Such a distance on the land of course, but in the mud pit that is really close to the horizon, normal people tired to death, you can't climb over. We are all high-level players, and there are many people who can help each other, so we don't have to worry about being trapped in the mud pit. It's just that once we get trapped, it will take time. So this mud pit is extremely annoying, and you can't avoid it. You can only pray for your good character.

After running for more than ten minutes, Ashford stepped into a mud pit. Fortunately, the boy was quick to react, so he rolled forward and jumped forward. But within two minutes later, Christina stepped on another one. Even if she started the melee mode, Christina was still a mage, and her body flexibility was not as good as those of us in combat. So she went straight down and half of her body, and the mud immediately went over her waist, which made Christina scream.

As soon as I saw the situation, I had to turn around and pull her back. Unfortunately, her reaction was too bad. Normally, Christina moves on a mount, so running with her legs is rare, so she has no experience in solving this situation. As a result, she starts to struggle as soon as she gets trapped. Originally, if you don't move the mud pit, it will sink slowly, but if you move in it, you will be in trouble. Christina's whole body began to sink like a big iron weight, and even when I heard the sound, she would be out of her chest by the time I got there. If I slowed down a little bit, she would have fallen into it. Of course, even if I don't care about her, she won't drown. At first, she was just flustered. As long as she calms down a little, she can still come out. But the key point is that it's too much time-consuming.

”It won't work like this.” Ashford said, looking at Christina, who had just been pulled out of the room and covered in mud.

”So.” I said out loud, ”Al, you're the detective. I'm in the second place. You line up in a straight line, one by one, and try to run on the footprints of the people in front of you. Al is an archer. He is more or less able to find the way and other skills. His ability to distinguish traps is better than all of you. In case of misfortune, I will be the second, and I will be able to fly over and pull her out. The people behind you will just have to avoid one another. This should reduce the trouble. ””I don't mind.” Said al.

”That's settled.” Ashford clapped: ”I'll follow the purple sun. You can line up behind you.”

After the plan was made, we quickly completed the team and started to run forward. Al, a semi professional Pathfinder, chose a way that was much better than everyone's own. I could obviously feel that the speed was much faster when I followed him. Unfortunately, I still couldn't reach my limit in terms of speed. After all, Al's grades are there. No matter how fast her experience is, her speed is still not as fast as mine. Especially if she wants to explore the way, I just need to follow.

After running for nearly half an hour, we didn't touch a mud pit. On the way, we ran into a huge beast that suddenly hit us. However, the speed of this thing was too slow. Al stepped on the head of the thing and walked over. I followed up with a sword and took this guy's head, waiting for Ashford to pass by By the time it came, the monster had fallen to the ground.

”Slow down, slow down.” I was running well with Al when I heard her calling in front of me to slow us down. I don't know what's going on, but I'm slowing down. When I caught up with Al, who had stopped completely, the woods in front of us suddenly disappeared. There's no gradual change in the trees here, but it's like meeting a fault, and the forest ends here all of a sudden. In front of us is a little yellow gravel ground, about ten meters wide. This pale yellow area is almost barren, and the part further ahead is a very obvious surface crack. We can't see the situation under the crack for a while, but we can be sure that there should be something like magma under it, because even if I'm so far away, I can smell a faint smell of sulfur.

”That's the goal?” I asked aloud.

”The target is down there.” Ashford came up and said, ”wait a minute. I'll give you something.” He asked the tank to put his backpack down, and Ashford dived in and turned it over for a long time to produce a large bag of white powder, the kind of powder we had seen in the battlefield before.

”Is that what you mean?” Asked Christina.

Ashford nodded, ”this is it. You all come here, everyone, get a little bit and sprinkle some on your equipment

”Shall I have it, too?” I asked in doubt. I have a growing artifact suit. Artifact itself is very rare, and suits are even more terrifying. Especially for a suit like me, which has a very exaggerated single attribute, there is no one in the world. What's more, I am still a growing equipment, which is even more a artifact in artifact. With such powerful equipment, can there be anything that can hurt this kind of equipment? But according to Ashford, it seems that this powder is not used to protect people, but to protect equipment.

Sure enough, I heard Ashford say, ”there is a substance in the air below that we don't know yet. It has no effect on people, but all metals will be corroded, including refined gold and secret silver. You don't have to worry about gems, cloth, silk, leather armour, but as long as it's metal, you must get some powder to sprinkle on it. Or you'll wait for the equipment to be scrapped. ”

”Shit, there's such a perverted thing?” After hearing this, I quickly made some powder and began to sprinkle it on the armor. Although I don't think the dragon soul suit may be affected by these things, I really don't dare to take this risk.

The powder is obviously a special protective product. Before it is applied to the surface of the metal, it is a white color like flour, but once it comes into contact with the metal, it will quickly become a liquid substance, which is a little like grease. Originally, I thought that smearing this thing would make me look like a white impermanent, but after applying it, the white powder turned into a liquid with high transparency. As a result, we did not become ”white”. Instead, it was like spraying a brightener on the surface of the armor. The whole armor looked bright.

”What kind of powder is this?” ”I'm going to get something back and put it on my jewelry, and it's going to look better on it than before,” Kristina said as she daubed it on her earrings

Ashford said with a smile, ”you'd better not know.”

On hearing this, Christina and I immediately guessed that it was not a good thing, but now we can't see anything, so in the principle of not making trouble for ourselves, we didn't ask any more. Otherwise, if we smell out that this thing is made of the feces of some living creature, what do you think we will feel? The key is that even if you know that you can't use it, so you need to use it anyway. It's better not to ask at all, so you don't have to worry about knowing.

After finishing wiping this thing, we didn't delay any time, and we went directly to the barren area in front of us. Ashford said that if we hadn't put that on beforehand, we should be able to hear the system now that something is eroding our armor. But now we haven't heard anything because we've already applied the protective agent.

After I got to the big crack, I looked down. This crack is very deep. When you look at it, you can feel the heat wave rolling upward. Fortunately, the temperature is still within the range of the human body. Although it will feel a little hot, it will not really cause any harm.The crack is very black, there is no expected red lava, but it is certain that there must be underground lava below, otherwise the sulfur smell can not be explained.

”How can we get down?”

Ashford pointed to a rock next to him and said, ”it's OK to step on that rock and jump down. There is such a prominent stone every other distance. Although there are only one or two people standing on each stone, it's not difficult to jump down one step at a time because of the small drop.”

I took a look at the stones and said, ”or shall we take you down?”

”Ah?” Ashford didn't respond.

I gave a direct shout and held up my wings. ”I can fly. The updraft here is so strong that I can take two people down and not even use a fan. ”

Although the length of the surface fissure is only more than 30 meters, the widest part is nearly 10 meters, which is enough for me to spread my wings and float down.

Ashford took a look at my wings, and then he looked at Christina and asked, ”can you also take people down?”

Christina nodded, ”but I'm not very good at flying on wings. I can't take a man at most, and I can't be of the tank type.”

Ashford thought for a moment and said, ”well, will you take Alice down for me?”

Christina nodded. ”That's OK.”

Ashford nodded at Christina and said to me, ”can you take care of me and the tank?”

”I'll forget it.” Tanks know their own situation. Although he is not a big fat man, and is not the type of lean meat freak, but after all, his muscles are very strong, and even if he is two meters and one, how light can he go? The key is that he is still a heavy cavalry, that armor defense is no words, but this weight is really a bit frightening. It can be said that a man like him should have at least three or four weights as heavy as that of Christina. After all, a little girl with a light gauze robe would nod at the end of the day, but his armor would be more than 200 kg, which was a bit frightening indeed.

Of course, I can understand the embarrassment of the tank, but instead of letting him go down by himself, I said, ”you underestimate my flying ability. To tell you the truth. This pair of wings is a kind of artifact. It doesn't affect my flight if it's within three tons. If it's only to cushion the falling speed, I'll still move with six or seven tons. What's your weight? ”

”So strong?”

”Don't worry about him,” Christina said. ”If you use the combination of his jet fans, he can bring them 20 or 30 tons. There's so much updraft here, and we're just gliding down. It's not a problem at all

”I'll be relieved. But what about my wife? ”

”I'd better jump myself.” Al knew that I was unlikely to bring her with me. It's not that I can't carry it, but there are too many people. I can't keep my power. After all, even if the weight doesn't exceed the standard, the volume should be limited.

”You don't have to jump yourself.” He said to me, ”son of the night.”

”This Is that ok? ”

The son of the night came up to her and said, ”no problem. I'll take you down to make sure you're more comfortable than them.”

The son of the night is not a big story. He is a transmission. One step into the next step to the destination. We have to bear the wind pressure when we fly. Of course, it is not as comfortable as him. And there's no comparison in terms of speed.
