Chapter 1674: Chapter 1675: Looting Corpses
Hearing these words, all six of you, including you, couldn’t help but let out a long sigh of relief. Hearing this answer, the biggest concern in your hearts was finally laid to rest.
Since this is just a game, and as the chivalrous man said, it’s already remarkable that they have made it this far, so naturally, they must continue on.
After getting a clear answer, Xu Mingjie plopped down on the ground, looking at the gloomy sky above, and sighed deeply, "I thought I would be trapped here for the rest of my life, turns out it’s just a game. It’s really unexpected how a game can be made to this extent, your developers are truly incredible."
"Holographic virtual games, I’ve heard people mention this term on the Business Alliance forum before. Currently, countries are jointly developing it, and it is nearing completion. I guess the game we are playing now is just a test."
"Sorry, the three questions are over. After a five-minute rest, we will head north. The upcoming demons will be even more agile and savage, although this is just a game, the realism is one hundred percent. In other words, when you die, you’ll experience the real feeling of death."
"Is the pain the same?" Xu Mingjie hurriedly asked.
"Yes."
"Damn, this is troublesome now." Xu Mingjie looked at Deng Fang, "Fangfang, it seems we’ll get to experience the taste of death in advance."
"Crow’s mouth!" Deng Fang glared at Xu Mingjie with irritation.
You sighed softly, "I’m afraid it’s like this. Death is certain for us, the question is just how to die in this game."
Du Yanan walked to Wei Yingyue’s side, holding Liang Xinyue’s small hand. To be honest, if she were to die herself, it wouldn’t matter, but she couldn’t bear to see Liang Xinyue and Wei Yingyue die before her eyes.
Wei Yingyue asked the chivalrous man who was still standing upright, "Hero, is there a direct way to log out of this game?"
"Yes, I was going to tell you about it. Since you asked now, I’ll tell you clearly. To defeat the Demon God, you must obtain the Three Artifacts, which are scattered in three places. Among these places, there is one exit leading to the light, but it only allows three people to leave. Moreover, each person who leaves can receive a reward."
"What reward?" Xu Mingjie asked.
"Sorry, my permission level is not high enough."
You looked at the chivalrous man and asked, "If we help you defeat the Demon God, is there a reward as well?"
"Yes."
"Interesting." You smiled, the corners of your mouth slightly curled up, naturally revealing a hint of a confident smile.
The chivalrous man glanced at the sky, looked down towards you all, and said, "Let’s move out."
"We have to set off again." Xu Mingjie stood up, pulling Deng Fang’s hand, following behind the chivalrous man. Now he has learned his lesson, knowing that no matter what, he must closely follow the chivalrous man.
Before leaving Blackwater Town, you asked Du Yanan, "Lao Du, which cold weapon are you good with? Knife, spear, or sword?"
"I’ve not much exposure to knives, forget about swords. Those can’t possibly deal with demons or ghosts. If I have to choose, I’d pick the spear, as it’s said, ’the longer, the stronger.’
"Alright, let’s see if there are any weapons we can pick up on the way."
As you were speaking, the six of you left Blackwater Town. Just as you stepped out from the decrepit gate tower overgrown with weeds, you were taken aback because a small team was coming towards you from the front.
At this time, the wind and sand picked up, making visibility low, and you could only vaguely see silhouettes.
"Hero, could it be that there are adventurers like us here too?"
The chivalrous man did not answer but instead drew the long knife from his waist, assuming a battle stance.
The team approached, and they seemed to have discovered you, suddenly spreading out and charging at you with weapons in hand!
When those silhouettes broke through the wind and sand and entered your field of vision, you clearly paused, for these weren’t humans, but a pack of Wolf Demons!
These Wolf Demons were clad in Bamboo Armor, wielding weapons!
"Get ready for battle!"
You immediately drew the dagger from your lower back. Instead of retreating, you advanced, and at the first opportunity, you overtook the chivalrous man, charging at a Wolf Demon holding a steel pitchfork in the front!
"You fool, what are you doing!?" Du Yanan shouted urgently as she saw you fighting so desperately.
"It’s called striking first to gain the upper hand!"
Just as those words were spoken, you had already reached the Wolf Demon. The Wolf Demon was quick to react, thrusting its steel pitchfork straight at you!
"Clang!" With your right hand gripping the dagger, your body twisting, you used the blade of the dagger in your right hand to parry the tip of the pitchfork. After spinning your body twice and making quick four-step maneuvers, a white gleam flashed in the Wolf Demon’s eyes. Soon after, its head fell with a "poof."
With your left hand gripping the steel pitchfork, you yanked it out fiercely and turned to thrust it towards Du Yanan behind you!
Seeing the steel pitchfork stabbing at her, Du Yanan did not panic. She backed away two steps swiftly, just in time for another Wolf Demon to pounce at the spot where Du Yanan had been standing. The steel pitchfork pierced through its body, nailing it to the ground!
Without a word, Du Yanan wielded the long stick in her hand, smashing it fiercely onto the Wolf Demon’s head, causing brain matter to splatter!
The Wolf Demon squad had six members. Du Yanan smashed one to death, while you decapitated two with the dagger, and the remaining three were swiftly killed by the chivalrous man.
"These Wolf Demons are nothing much, so fragile!" Du Yanan tossed aside the long stick in her hand, pulling the steel pitchfork from the Wolf Demon’s body.
"Careful!" During Du Yanan’s moment of delight, Wei Yingyue quickly pushed Du Yanan aside as a "whoosh" sound was heard, an arrow brushing past Du Yanan’s hair, snapping a few strands.
"Archer!"
Du Yanan pointed urgently to under a tree fifty meters away, where two Wolf Demon archers stood!
At that moment, these two Wolf Demon archers had already drawn their bowstrings fully. Seeing the arrows about to fly again, the chivalrous man’s body suddenly flashed before your eyes like an afterimage, darting towards one of the Wolf Demon archers!
The Wolf Demon archers quickly loosed their arrows, shooting straight at the chivalrous man. The chivalrous man swung his blade, blocking left and right. After deflecting two arrows, he made a spin, his long knife forming a crescent as he sliced one of the Wolf Demon archers in half. While he was preparing to deal with the other Wolf Demon archer, a familiar dagger spun through the air, accurately piercing the Wolf Demon archer’s forehead!
One strike, one kill!
The chivalrous man turned his head and saw you jogging over. You pulled the dagger from the Wolf Demon’s forehead, saying to the chivalrous man, "Hero, your little knife is truly sharp!"
The chivalrous man gave you an indifferent look and turned away.
However, you moved on to the disgusting task of corpse searching, much to the chagrin of the surrounding women.
