The nineteenth volume, the forty-fifth chapter, the discovery of the target
Volume 19 Chapter 45 Discovering the Target
I took the fruit that had been trampled and looked at it in confusion, and said, "What's the suspicion? Isn't it just a fruit that has been trampled and trampled?"
Sort took the fruit in my hand and asked, "Do you know the name and characteristics of this thing?"
I shook my head and said, "There are so many plant fruits in Zero, how could I remember them all? Could it be that this thing is very special?"
"I don't know where it's very special, but it's really special here," said Sort. "This fruit is called the fragrant fruit, a plant called the perfume tree. Because it has no taste in itself, it's named the fragrant fruit."
"What's the use of this thing?"
"For players and most creatures, the only function of this kind of fragrant fruit is to be eaten as food. However, although it can replenish the hunger value, this kind of thing has no taste, so unless you choose it, most people will not eat this kind of fruit. Moreover, in fact, the perfume tree itself is relatively rare, so this kind of fruit is generally difficult to see."
When I heard Sort say this, I suddenly realized something. "Wait, will the perfume tree you mentioned emit fragrance?"
Suote nodded and said, "It's true that he is President Zi Ri, and he discovered it so quickly. There is no perfume tree nearby. The appearance of the fruit here means that something must have brought it here. However, most creatures in the jungle have no interest in this fruit at all, so... "
"Did this thing fall when a player passes by?" I finally understood what Suote said. Since this thing that ordinary people have no interest and are too lazy to touch even monsters can appear far from its origin, the only possibility is that someone specially picked this thing and fell here halfway. However, the problem is. National Barrier***The player itself is already very strange. This person actually picked this fruit that no one needs for inexplicably. What is he going to do? Although this fruit can be eaten, Suote said just now. This thing has no taste. Unless it is really hungry and is in a state of hunger, ordinary people will not have to work hard to pick this kind of thing. So, what is the purpose of the player passing by?
When I was about to let Bai Lang track the traces of the person who left this fruit according to the smell, Sort suddenly said: "Actually, not all creatures here are not interested in this fruit. As far as I know, there should be a kind of creature in this area that will like this fruit. No, it should not be said to like it, but needs it."
"What kind of creature is it like to eat? If it is really the fruit brought by that creature, isn't that a player?"
"The problem lies here. There is only one kind of creature nearby who likes to eat fragrant fruit, but the demand is not large, and this creature does not have the habit of hoarding. They are used to going to the perfume tree in their memory when they want to eat and leaving, and never take the fragrant fruit away. If it is that kind of creature, let alone throwing one, even if it is dropped by someone else, they will definitely eat the fruit when they pass by here."
"Then it's definitely a human being." I said, and called Bai Lang over, then handed the fruit to his nose and said, "Smell it, can you track the smell of the man carrying this thing."
Bai Lang came over and sucked his nose a few times, then sucked it hard on the ground, and finally stood up suddenly and said, "I smell the fragrance."
"fragrance?"
Sort immediately said: "It's probably a perfume tree."
Bai Lang shook his head, then grinned, and a pretty scary smile appeared, saying, "It's a woman's fragrance."
"Can you track it?"
Bai Lang nodded and said, "Although the taste is already very light, I should still be able to catch up."
"Then follow and take a look."
Anyway, I'm here to look for clues. Since I find that players are here, it's likely that they are Russians. Since they will be active in such dangerous areas, they must be planning some bad ideas. After all, the other side of the national barrier is the place where the elite Russians gathered as the War God showed me. They can't come to the dangerous national barrier area with such a big fanfare to travel together, right?
With Bailang's nose, as long as the other party doesn't go into the water, the smell that is a little longer can still be smelled. At the beginning, the lighter part sometimes needs Bailang to confirm back and forth several times before finding the right direction, but after following it for a while, the taste suddenly becomes stronger. Bailang doesn't even have to look for the smell on the ground, and just rush forward, causing us to run all the way and follow.
"Wait a minute." We were chasing each other well, and A Duo suddenly shouted.
"What's going on?" Bai Lang and I were running in front of us and both braked suddenly, then looked back at A Duo in confusion and waited for her explanation.
A Duo was so tired that he was panting and couldn't answer me for a moment. Soter quickly came up and explained: "You can't chase like this anymore!"
"Why?"
"The front...the front is the death zone!"
"Death Zone?" I don't have any knowledge about this kind of terrain in my memory, so I can only ask Sort, who told them to be the guide.
Sort probably knew that I didn't understand and explained directly: "The Death Zone is the saying between our guides, which generally refers to all places where death and dark aura are heavy. When entering this place, unless it is a dark profession, other people will slowly lose blood, and their own recovery ability will stop. In addition, this place is more likely to produce undead creatures. Now this death zone happens to be in the national barrier area, so it will definitely not be ordinary undead, so..."
Without waiting for Soter to say something, I interrupted him and said, "So we can let go of our hands and feet now." As I said, I snapped my fingers and let Ye Ying and Steel Claws come out together. Without waiting for Soter and Aduo to react, Steel Claws directly rolled them onto their backs with the tentacles on their backs, and then I also turned over and climbed on Ye Ying's back to direct Ye Ying and Steel Claws to start running wildly with Bai Lang. Previously, due to our speed limit, Bai Lang had not run at full speed, and the smell was light at the beginning, and he couldn't track it at too fast. But now we have a mount, and the smell in front is much stronger, and Bai Lang's speed immediately increased.
Seeing that I not only kept taking them forward, A Duo shouted desperately: "President Zi Ri, we really can't run away anymore. There may be very advanced undead creatures ahead."
"It is because this is a gathering area for the undead that we can run with confidence and boldness."
"Why?"
"Because I'm here." Ling's figure suddenly appeared in front of me and sat slanted on Ye Ying's back and said.
"Are you..." Sort was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered. "You are the most powerful one among the magic pets of President Ling Zi Ri?"
"Who told you that I am the most powerful one?" Ling asked with a funny look.
A Duo said: "Every time I watch the video, there are many magic pets fighting together, you are in command, so..."
"Captain must be better than the soldiers? I am only responsible for commanding, and I am not the first in terms of combat power. If the master's magic pet calculates the comprehensive combat power, that little guy should be the strongest!" Ling is actually talking about the baby. His sweet space is already an independent world. This ability to create a world and set rules is far beyond our ability to fight and kill. Of course, facing the baby head-on may not have done anything to my other magic pets. The strongest thing is to say is comprehensive strength, not simple combat power.
Sort suddenly reacted and said, "Wait a minute. Even if Miss Ling is here, we can't run around in such a dangerous place? If this happens..."
This guy, Sauter, must have known for the first time that he had the talent of a crow's mouth, because when a dead soul suddenly popped up in front of us, his expression was obviously much more surprised than us.
"Soul Devourer!" Seeing the undead creature suddenly flashing from a huge black tree, Sort was so scared that he even started to tremble when he spoke.
The Soul Devourer is an advanced body in the undead ghost branch. Its attack method has been transformed from semi-physical and semi-magical attacks to full-minded attacks. And this guy has a very perverted ability, that is, it can absorb the souls of enemies or companions every few minutes to restore damage to itself. If it is not injured, this absorption ability will make its attack power increase rapidly. Of course, it is nothing to absorb the companions. The most annoying thing is that it can even absorb the person who is fighting with it. When absorbing the soul and replenishing himself, it will cause the opponent to experience dizziness and agility reduction. It can be said that this is a standard self-destructive skill, and it is super practical on the battlefield.
In fact, if you can absorb the soul and replies yourself, that's nothing. The real feature of Soul Devourers is that these guys live in groups. You can rarely see a single Soul Devourers wandering around, but as long as you find one, there will definitely be a group nearby.
Sure enough, after the first soul devourer appeared, a dozen soul devourers suddenly appeared behind the trees next to us, blocking all the roads in front of us.
With the experience of being a guide, Soter and Aduo knew to enter the undead creature gathering area after seeing the nearby forest from green to black. However, although they knew that they would encounter advanced undeads, so many soul-eating people appeared at once, they still scared the two of them to death. However, just when they were both anxious and sweating, something that was shocked and dropped suddenly appeared.
The group of soul-eating people who were suspended in the air like weightless hydrogen balloons suddenly landed on the ground after appearing, then bent their energy-generating right hands to their chests and bent down to give us a chest caress.
"Dear Lord, you don't seem to belong to this area. Is there anything wrong with suddenly appearing here?"
The Soul-Devourer's words made Soter and Aduo almost turn off from the back of the steel claws. When did the Soul-Devourer also start to become so polite?
Ling nodded slightly to the soul-eating people as a gift, and then said with a high look on his face: "We are just here to investigate some things. Have you seen someone passing by here recently?"
One of the Soul-Devourers had a darker color and moved forward one step, and then replied respectfully: "Sorry, you are the only group of people we have met in recent months, but our range of activities is limited to this area. Perhaps other companions may see it, but if you need to inquire, please contact our master."
Ling waved his hand and said, "Guide."
"Please wait." The soul-eating man suddenly turned around and signaled. The other soul-eating man immediately floated over and surrounded us. Sort and Aduo thought they were going to attack us, so they were so scared that they were trembling, but I had no intention of comforting them at all. They directly took back the steel claws and Ye Ying, and finally put away the darts and Bailang that were exploring the way.
Only a few of us were left and the size was much smaller. The group of soul-devouring people held hands and surrounded us in the center. Then they suddenly screamed at the same time. At the same time, a magic array filled with purple-black mist appeared under our feet. As the light of the magic array flashed violently, we appeared in a dark cave the next second.
Although this cave is dark, it is not completely black. Because there are still many blue ghost fires burning around, it is barely a little bright. Soter and Aduo used their soul projection for the first time, and they thought we were teleported to the cave. In fact, what we are coming here is just our souls, and our bodies have not left our place.
"I really didn't expect to meet the regional master. It's really honorable to see you." A hoarse voice appeared deep in the cave, and when we looked over the sound, we happened to see a skeleton with purple hellfire burning all over our body walking down from a throne made of skeletons.
Ling did not be polite to the skeleton's flattery, because with her strength there was no need to be polite. "I didn't expect that the master of the Soul-Devouring Master was actually a skeleton lord. Is your area very small here?"
The skeleton walked to us and said, "Good Lord Lord, I am not the master of the Soul Devourers. The original Soul Devourers were killed not long ago. I was originally the deputy commander here, so I took over this issue after the Lord was defeated."
"You said the master was killed?" I asked first without waiting for Ling Wen: "When? Who did it?"
Although I am not a dark god, my attributes are of great affinity for the undead, and Ling is by my side, so the skeleton lord replied directly without thinking: "Just three days ago, it was done by a group of adventurers from the north."
