The nineteenth volume, the two hundred and fifty-seventh chapter, the vicissitudes of life

Volume 19 Chapter 257: The world of change

Just as the guy finished saying this, I suddenly turned around and looked at him coldly and asked in a cold tone: "Are you talking to me?"

"You..." The guy was going to say a few harsh words, but the last half of the sentence I saw was swallowed back into his stomach. He was so flushed that his face turned red and coughed desperately.

"You idiot, if you can't speak human words, just shut your dog's mouth for me." A very mature soldier walked out and pulled the guy aside, then turned around and said to me with a smile: "I'm sorry, President Zi Ri, this guy is just a mean guy. Don't care, just treat him as a stinky fart, just don't worry about him."

I glanced at the guy who was talking coldly, and was too lazy to pay attention to him, so I turned around and walked forward. The guy behind saw that I ignored him, but when I moved, the safety area was equivalent to moving with me. There was no way for these guys to follow me. I didn't care about the followers of the guys behind. Anyway, as long as I didn't affect me, I wouldn't bother to care about what they were doing.

Moving forward in the original direction, I soon walked into a denser primitive jungle. Unlike the place I walked before, the trees in this area are obviously much larger than those outside, and the volume of various plants is many times larger than those outside. Of course, in addition to the plants becoming more dense, the monsters here also began to change. At first, the mandrills were still following me perseveringly, hoping that when will the people come out of the safe area beside me, but as we continued to go deeper into the forest, the mandrills began to become undecided. Finally, after we crossed a ravine, the mandrills finally gave up tracking after hesitating for a while. With the whistle of the mandrills in the team, the mandrills surrounding us immediately ran away.

"Huh, I'm finally leaving. These damn things!" The guy who had no idea what he said before suddenly said this again.

The soldier who had been walking by his side for fear that this guy's stinky mouth disease would attack again quickly patted him and said, "What are you talking nonsense? Do you think we would be safe without those marls?"

"What? Can't we leave after the mandrill ran away?" The guy with obvious intelligence was underdeveloped and asked stupidly.

Before the soldiers next to him could speak, an archer said a lesson: "I've told you how many times I've told you that people are stupid and less talk more. You're fucking more nonsense than farts. Do you think we'll be safe if those marshals leave? Don't you see why they left?"

"Ah? Why?" This guy really has an intellectual problem. He actually has to ask such an obvious question.

A warrior next to him couldn't see it anymore and spoke up to remind him: "Look at the surrounding environment and take out the monster area identification manual sent out to compare it."

When the fool heard this, he took out a small notebook and flipped it out. Then he suddenly turned to one of the pages and compared the nearby plants, then exclaimed: "My mother! Is this a level 2,000 monster area?"

Hearing the guy screaming there, the two soldiers next to him rushed up and pressed him to the ground. The archer slapped him on his face and shook his head helplessly, "Brother and sister-in-law are all famous people. How could they give birth to such a stupid son? Mom in the sky! Did your sister-in-law carry the wrong child when she gave birth to another person?"

I don't care about the behavior of those people. Anyway, they shouted and caused the monsters to die. Even if this is a monster area of ​​2,000, I can still walk sideways with my strength. However, I am now curious about the small notebook in the fool's hand. In "Zero", there has never been a monster area identification manual. Now the monster areas divided in the game are marked on the map little by little by little by little by players through long-term exploration. It is not that the system has marked these monster areas. Moreover, in fact, there is often no clear boundary between the high-level monster area and the low-level monster area. It does not mean that you will not be able to encounter high-level monsters in the low-level area. It is just that the probability of high-level monsters entering the low-level area is relatively low.

Because the system does not divide monster areas, the information that can identify monster partitions is very valuable, especially for people like me who often need to go in and out of some advanced monster areas that no one has explored. If you can confirm the danger level of an area in advance, it will often save a lot of things, and the safety is much more guaranteed.

The idiot just took a notebook and searched for a few times and confirmed that this was a monster area of ​​2,000. This effect surprised me very much. Judging from his search speed just now, the records in this notebook should be able to easily compare the levels of the surrounding monsters, which shows that the records in this notebook are a very simple method of identifying monster areas. How could I let go of such an important thing?

"Can you lend me a look at that thing?"

The two soldiers who were desperately pressing the idiot and the archer next to him were stunned, and then they immediately reacted, but their reaction was completely different. The first thing they reacted was not the two soldiers and the archer, but the fool who was pressed down below. He suddenly raised his head from the crowd and shouted to me: "Why should we give us our things..."

Before he could finish his words, the archer stepped on his head back to the ground, and then the archer quickly snatched the guy's notebook and ran to me to hand it over with both hands.

"President Zi Ri, you see, if you like it, you don't have to pay it back. We will have a lot of books in this thing anyway."

I said thank you and took the book and opened it and flipped it. I found that the content on the book was expressed in a mix of pictures and text. I simply turned two pages and found that the content of this book seemed to distinguish the monster areas based on the characteristics of the plants. According to the above description, there will be a specific rule for the plant density and size of different monster areas and the proportions of different plants. According to these rules, the monster level in the area can be confirmed.

Although this analysis method is quite good, I quickly discovered the problem, that is, the scope of application of this thing is a bit narrow. Looking at the records above, this thing should be used exclusively for China and is not suitable for the southern region. The proportion of plants mentioned in the records in the book is mostly temperate or cold-stricken plants, and it is completely useless if you use this thing in tropical rainforests. Moreover, the monster areas are not all in forests. Although most of the monster areas are mainly mountainous forests, there are still many monster areas with special terrain. Therefore, this thing in front of you is only suitable for ordinary players to use in forests in some medium and high latitude areas. If it is in other places, this thing will be completely useless.

"How did you get this thing?" I asked while closing the notebook and handing it back to the archer.

Before the archer could answer, the idiot behind suddenly lifted the two soldiers and got up and said, "This is written by my mother. How about it? Isn't it amazing?"

Hearing this, I turned my gaze back to the archer in front of me, and asked, "Is she here?"

The bowman shook his head and said, "Hey, he is the logistics staff of our guild, not a combat profession. However, she used to be environmental protection, so she studied plants and other things. This thing was made up by her for this stupid son, but later our boss thought it would be useful to everyone, so he printed many books and distributed a book to each of them."

I nodded and said, "Can you tell me the name and address of your guild? I want to visit the author of this book. You obviously ignore the value of this thing. I think I can help you dig out its value, but I hope that the guy's mother can help us to write a large-scale monster area identification manual for our Frost Rose League. This book has a very small scope of application."

The archer nodded immediately and said, "Our guild is called the Valley of Dreams, it is a very small guild. The headquarters of our guild is built in Liuye City, but Liuye City is a city of the Frost Society. We just established the headquarters there, and the city is not ours."

I nodded and said, "Okay, I will go to find you when I have time." After I finished speaking, I asked, "Who is the leader here?"

"I am." A warrior who had pressed the idiot before ran over and said.

I looked at this calm guy and said, "This is a high-level monster area. Those things are not comparable to those of mandrills. Although they may not dare to attack me, they will not stop fifty meters away like mandrills. If you follow me like this, you will have to end up being wiped out. However, because I am very interested in the writer of this booklet, I can sell your favors." As I said, I patted my hands, and a bunch of reels fell directly to the ground in front of me. "These are the lowest-end reels that can be automatically teleported to the nearest neutral city in areas without teleportation restrictions. But I only have thirty-six people, and you are too many, so I can only let you send some of them away first. The rest can stay and follow me. I will try my best to ensure your safety and escort you to the safe area when I leave."

After hearing what I said, the warrior and the archer next to him quickly picked up the scrolls and kept thanking me for their help. After getting the scrolls, the two of them immediately gathered the remaining personnel together and announced the good news to them. Of course, the next step was to allocate the teleportation scrolls. However, they now have 54 people, but there are only 36 scrolls, so eighteen people cannot get rid of them.

As the saying goes, there is no poverty and unevenness. It is a problem for whom the scroll is assigned to. Fortunately, this is a small guild, and most of the people in the club are familiar with each other, so everyone is very loyal, so there is no competition. First of all, as the leader here, the warrior and the archer who were the leader, and the warrior who helped the warrior suppress the fool before, all announced that they would not participate in the distribution, which saved three scrolls. Although they were still not enough points, at least it was much better.

After the three announced that they would not participate in the allocation, five more people took the initiative to stay, but the reason they stayed was not because they were the leaders and needed to set an example, but because these five people admired me very much. That's right. They are all people who often pay attention to the combat power list and like to be involved in forums. According to their words, being able to follow me to watch my battle process up close is something that is hard to come by. Of course, they cannot let go of such a good opportunity, so these five people directly chose to stay. Although staying may die, out of confidence in me, they felt that the survival rate was still very high. Besides, if you can see my battle, you will not lose if you die once.

After these five guys and those three withdrew, the fool also shouted that his father was the president, so he also wanted to set an example, so he also withdrew from the distribution. In this way, a total of nine people were not involved in the distribution. After nine people were missing, the scene became 45 people divided into thirty-six scrolls, and nine people were forced to stay with the nine who took the initiative to give up. Considering the fairness factor, the warrior finally decided to let the forty-five people draw lots to decide who to leave and who to stay.

Their lottery method was very special. The warrior directly made nine scrolls from a space equipment on his body, and then put them all into the pile of scrolls in front of those people. Since the low-level scrolls provided by the system are exactly the same appearance, as long as you don’t look at the words on the scroll seal, you don’t know the functions of the low-level scrolls at all. The ones I gave were the most basic return scrolls, all of which were accidentally exploded before, and they were piled up in the Phoenix Dragon Space like garbage. Unexpectedly, this time it came in handy. As for the warrior, it probably was all low-level scrolls such as lighting. Anyway, it must be the basic scrolls sold in the system store, because only this type of scroll will have the same appearance and make people unable to distinguish.

Let those who participated in the lottery turn around, and then a warrior and several other people who did not draw lots put the scroll all on the ground, then cover the middle part of the scroll with leaves, leaving only decorative handles at both ends, so that it is impossible to see which scroll is what scroll. After the scroll is put, the soldiers called those people back and asked them to pick one scroll each of them, but they are not allowed to do it themselves. After the choice is made, he will go over and help the other party take the scroll over to prevent anyone cheating. In this way, after the scroll is divided, the person who gets the teleportation scroll can leave directly, and the rest can only admit that they are unlucky. Who told you to be unlucky?

I was not idle when the group of people assigned the scrolls. At this time, I was standing on the top of a big tree and looking into the distance. To be honest, the terrain here is really different from the terrain that Josfitter pointed to me. No, I can't say it is completely different. If you want to say that this is where Josfitter said, it is strange that you can't find the river. If it is not here, the surrounding environment is a bit similar to what Josfitter said.

I looked around the trees helplessly, but after I found that I could not find the target, I simply put the bird out and let him go around the sky. As a result, the answer given to me after the bird came down was that there was no river in the surrounding area within a radius of 100 kilometers. But he found that a river was left in the forest far away, but the canopy blocked the ground, so he could not see the direction of the river in the sky. However, according to him, if the river did not turn halfway, it should have flowed through us.

"It's so damn!" I fell from the tree in depressedly and took out the map and flipped it out.

After allocating the scrolls and sending those people away, the remaining eighteen people gathered to me. The soldier saw that I was looking at the map and walked over and asked, "Is President Zi Ri looking for something?"

I was looking at the map but didn't pay attention to his words. I said directly: "Yes, I'm looking for a river. Someone told me that there should be a river here, but my demon pet could see the upper reaches of the river from the sky, but I couldn't find where the middle section of the river went."

"He?" The senior soldier who took the initiative to stay suddenly interrupted, "President Zi Ri, what you said is Buguihe, right?"

"Don't return to the river?" I looked up at him in confusion and said, "I don't know the name of that river."

The soldier immediately said, "Then I have no choice. All I know is Buguihe, and I don't know if it is the one you mentioned."

"How many rivers are there in this forest?" I asked with a frown.

The archer next to him replied: "As far as I know, there seem to be six, but I have only seen one of them."

"You have only seen one?" I turned around and asked.

The soldier who said Buguihe said, "I have seen three of them. I had done a very difficult task here before. Although I failed later, I also went deep into the deep forest. At that time, in addition to the two rivers outside the forest, I also walked to Buguihehe."

I thought about it and asked, "If you see the upper reaches of the river, can you recognize that river does not return to the river?"

The guy shook his head and said, "I can't do anything about this. The rivers in the forest are all like that. If I don't walk to the river in person, I can't tell which river is which one."

Hearing this, I could only ask helplessly: "Then where is the Buguihe River you know?"

The soldier pointed to the right and said, "Then."

I took a look at that direction, which was much different from my original direction, but now I can't find the way, so I can only go and see the river of no return first.

"Take me to see first."

"OK."

With a rough direction, it is much more convenient to move forward. Because that guy remembers the distance, we don’t even have to worry about running over, just move forward quickly. As we ran, we soon discovered the river, but this river was obviously not the same as the river mentioned by Josfat. The main reason was that this river was too big.

“Isn’t this the river you’re looking for?”

I looked at the river surface that was five or six meters wide in front of me and said, "What I am looking for is a small river like a stream, which is only two meters wide at most. This one is too big."

"At most two meters wide?" The soldier suddenly looked at me in confusion and asked, "President Zi Ri, when did the person who told you this address come last time?"

I didn't notice it, but when this guy asked me, I suddenly realized. How many years have you been in Ryan's laboratory? Although for most people, mountains, rivers and rivers can be regarded as landmarks, once your life span exceeds thousands of years, the rivers and peaks cannot be treated simply as dead objects. After all, the peaks will collapse or grow, and rivers will also be diverted. The few people who came here last time have been here for thousands of years. A mountain may not have much change, but a river may not be able to change. The speed of diverting the route of the river is much faster than that of the mountains.

"It seems that my information is a bit outdated." I said, "Wait a minute, I'll take a look at the upstream and downstream of the river." As I said, I reached out and summoned the dart, and asked him to explore downstream first. At the speed of the dart, he came back after only a few minutes. As a result, the dart said that he ran along the river and did not see any waterfalls, lakes, or caves. I nodded and asked the dart to continue to explore upstream. As a result, the dart was so fast this time, and he ran back in a few seconds and said that he had found a big lake upstream.

I heard that after I found the lake, I immediately started searching upstream, and found that lake very quickly. However, this lake is obviously much larger than the lake mentioned by Yosfate. And Yosfate said that only one stream flows into the lake, and the upper reaches of the stream is the waterfall, and the upper reaches of the waterfall is the river as a landmark. Although the lake we see now is still a lake, there are three streams surrounding it, and one of them is considered a small river instead of a stream.

"Is this the place you are looking for?" the warrior asked.

I shook my head and said, "I don't know. It feels a bit like it, but it doesn't look like it carefully." As I said, I released the dart again and asked him to inquire about the upstream of the three rivers. According to Josfat, the upstream of the stream that merged into the lake was the location of the small waterfall, so I asked the dart to explore the distance of all three rivers forward for ten kilometers. At the speed of the dart, it took less than a minute to explore the range. It turned out that I actually found a waterfall. However, according to the dart, the waterfall could not be considered a waterfall, because it was divided into more than ten levels and gradually fell downwards, and the drop between the highest point and the lowest point was only more than four meters, divided into so many levels and stretched for nearly half a kilometer. As a result, the waterfall did not look like a waterfall at all, but it looked like a relatively steep river channel.

Although the river has changed a lot, I still judged that this is probably the lake that Josfate mentioned. So since the lake has been found, the cave must be nearby. According to Josfate's description, the cave is located on a hillside. Because the forest land by the lake is not dense, I easily confirmed that there are only two directions nearby, and the other directions are flat. Compared with the river, the change speed of the mountains is much slower, so this hillside should be relatively reliable.

With my finger snapping, hundreds of death guards appeared by the lake. I pointed directly at the hillside on both sides: "Divid half of the people go there, and the other half go there, search for me carefully. The target is a cave, the entrance of the cave is relatively hidden, but the artificially carved plaque."

After receiving the order, the Death Guards immediately divided into two teams and ran towards the hillsides on both sides. Just after the Death Guards separated, a large splash of water suddenly burst out from the lake in front of them, and then a huge long mouth emerged from the water and rushed towards us.

The people who followed me were all frightened to death when they saw this monster that suddenly appeared, because according to their observation, it was clearly a monster area of ​​2,200. When they encountered monsters in such a place, they were definitely not able to deal with it. However, just as they were panicking, they suddenly found a bigger mouth flashing and biting the head, then swung it and pulled it out of the lake and threw it into the forest next to it. Then the huge black shadow rushed into the forest and bit the white monster that was pulled out to death and swallowed it into the stomach.

Looking at Black Yan's huge body, the people present opened their mouths and could just stuff a fist in them. Of course, I didn't pay much attention to this because I was waiting for the report from the guards of the Death God.

Shortly after the group of people realized, the Death Guards finally ran back. There was nothing found on the mountain on the left, and the same was true on the mountain on the right.

"Not on either side?"

"The report was indeed nothing was discovered." The Death Guard, who led the team, reported affirmatively.

As magical creatures, there is no such thing as passive slacking off in the things like Death Guard, so if they say there is no, it must be that they really didn't find it.

After thinking about it, I suddenly waved my hand to summon the Trailblazers and Rose Vine, and then pointed to the hillside on both sides. "To the left of the Trailblazers and to the right of the Rose Vine, go and see if there are plants buried under the hillside that should not grow underground."

Although theoretically, a mountain will not change much between one or two thousand years, there is a situation that may change the appearance of a mountain in an instant, that is, a landslide. The mountains on both sides are very steep. If there is a landslide, it is possible to bury the original hole in an instant. However, I dare not confirm this idea. After all, I came here to find a master, not to dig a grave. Since the other party can be called a master by Yosfat, it must be a very strong existence. If his nest is buried, how could he not leave the exit again? However, if there is really an exit, the guard of the Death God will not be able to find it.

I was struggling here, but Rose Vine suddenly sent a message saying that I had found some plants that should not appear in the mountain, so I immediately took people over. At my request, Rose Vine directly turned out a big tree from the mountain. Although the wood was almost rotten, it can be confirmed that it was indeed a big tree. Although the roots of the tree grow in the soil, the trunks and other things should not be under the soil. Moreover, according to the discovery of Rose Vine, there are actually many such big trees under the ground nearby. This can only show one problem, that is, a landslide occurred here and the big trees that originally grew on the surface were buried underground. In this way, the cave is likely to be here.
