“That’s a really good idea.” Black Scorpion Scarred Mark quietly say to Falling To The Silence on the side using the team channel.
Now he is wearing a set of life clothes that have been bought from the system store for 10 gold coins, a kimono with a shape similar to that of an ancient Japanese aristocratic dress, the black fabric is embroidered with a luxurious dark pattern with a soft clothes texture, sure enough it’s a lot more comfortable than a combat costume. Silence beside him has a set of sophisticated costumes, the gray-green loose-fitting-clothes trousers are tied in the boot, wearing only a sleeveless tight sweatshirt on the upper body, without the long blond hair he would look like special forces soldier in active duty.
That kind of clothes can be bought in the system store with moderate price, it’s the life clothing that most players in the game will wear, although the handsome appearance of removing the mask has caused some trouble for them, but in the eyes of the two people who have been accustomed to being chased by crazy FANS before, it seems that the situation is much easier now.
Being skilled in getting rid of the strangers who tried to get close to strike up a conversation, Black Scorpion Scarred Mark and Falling To The Silence walking out of the small town, fortunately there were not many people in the town, they were able to walk quietly to the leveling area, this is a place where players from level forty or fifty were practicing, although these two people are well-known in the game, but the players who have not seen the true face of Lushan Mountain* were still hard to associate the two players whose level and gear-equipment look like the middle and lower class players in front of them with the two legends.
(T/n: 不识庐山真面目 Not to know the true face of Lushan Mountain means: that the understanding of objective things is not comprehensive, so one doesn’t know the true nature of things; the words “I don’t know the true face of the mountain” takes from the poetry of Su Shi’s “The West Wall”, using imagery to depict the front and side; Looking at Lushan in the distance, near, high, and low, Lushan presents a variety of different appearances).
“Hey! Don’t go any further. The front is an area near to more than level 70 monsters!” The shouts came from behind, Black Scorpion Scarred Mark looked back to see a team of three-person, the one who waved to them was headed by the warrior with a big sword on his back.
Falling To The Silence didn’t speak, pulling Black Mark and continues to move forward, even if all his skills were sealed now, with the powerful attack power of the Vega Storm. More than 70 levels of little monsters are also one-knife second-killed. He didn’t want anyone to disturb himself and Black Mark’s precious time alone.
Black Mark pulled his hand secretly and reminded Silence that they were now playing as more than level 40 rookies, they can’t just reveal their identity in front of strangers. Silence’s Vega Storm and his own Taomari were the only two legendary artifacts in the game, like the two black and white masks, became their exclusive symbol.
“Is it? But we are going to do the mission.” Friendly waved his hand at the Warrior, Black Scorpion Scarred Mark showed a smile on his face.
“Ah…” The Warrior who was dazzled by that smile stunned for a while, then after coming back to his sense he somewhat shyly said: “That..at least you must change into the combat clothes, the monster over there was very powerful, the last time we accidentally broke through and we’re almost second killed!”
“Oh, is that it?” Black Mark squinted his brow and tried to make himself look like a rookie: “Thank you for your reminder.” Fortunately, Fusu had a foresight to prepare a low-level combat costume for both of them, they each changed into a very ordinary outfit, they then nodded to the three people and continued to walk deep into the woods.
“It’s boring!” Falling To The Silence coldly said, it’s true that he likes to keep low-key, but in his opinion this kind of sneaky behavior still made him very upset.
“Hehe, there’s nothing we can do.” Their missions couldn’t be exposed casually, if most of the main members lose their fighting power, what kind of impact will it have on the guild and even the Light and Shadow City, none of them could have imagined it.
“Hey! Wait!” A strange voice came from far and near, Black Scorpion Scarred Mark turned his head back and found that it was the archer in the three-people team, he was seen to stand in front of the two men and still a little breathless, he could see that he was running not in the short distance: “We will go with you, it’s really dangerous, five people will be safer.”
Black Scorpion Scarred Mark somewhat felt embarrassed, their identity can’t be exposed, but he really can’t bear to bluntly rejected the others’ sincere kindness.
“Let’s go together, at least there is a warrior and a homey-dad in our team.” The former swordsman looked at Black Mark and Silence’s combat costumes. Now the two are wearing the same light armor, one with a short bow behind his back and the other one with a dagger in his hand, which looks like a little archer and a little assassin around level 40.
“E, okay. It’s just that we can’t team up with other people right now.” Faced with such enthusiastic people, it was hard to fabricate lies again, Black Mark hesitated for a moment and chose an ambiguous answer.
“Never mind, never mind, we also want to go there to play, the last time I almost died, I’m really discontent!” The person in the team called “Homey Dad” smiled and replied. “I am Blue Sea Blue Sky, the Elf race Druid, the human race swordsman is The Battle Of The Sky, the one next to you is the elf race archer I Don’t Love ChangEr*.”
(T/n: A druid was a member of the high-ranking professional class in ancient Celtic cultures;
ChangEr: she appeared in Journey To The West, Goddess of the Moon)
“Hello, I am Ah Yao, this is Silence.”
“Let’s go, if it’s dark, the monsters there are even more disgusting!” The Battle Of The Sky waved the big sword in his hand and rushed up, he was more than level 60, the highest-level person in the team, and so a warrior, he was rightly in the lead.
The world map of Lost Temple is very large, Black Scorpion Scarred Mark was originally just practicing in the deep forests of the deserted mountains, he had never been to this place, when he walked into the woods and saw the monsters in the woods, his face was ashen at once, in his heart he regretted choosing this route…
The monsters in this woods are very unitary, most of them are all over the sky, flapping their wings, huge —— Moths! ! !
Strongly suppressing the impulse to turn around and run, Black Scorpion Scarred Mark let his goose bumps on his body pop up layer by layer, hang his head and forcing himself not to look at the monsters. Falling To The Silence who was closest to him saw the other’s expression, there was a faint smile on his face —— Black Mark’s expression just now was so cute!
“What’s wrong?” Noticed the abnormality of the two people there, Blue Sea Blue Sky thoughtfully asked.
“That…” Feeling somewhat embarrassed to look up, Black Scorpion Scarred Mark muttered after a long while, he simply admit to smash a cracked pot* : “I hate moths!” The thought of the scaly powder that fell with the flapping of the wings, made all the hair on his body stood up. The simulation of this game is so high, you can’t even ignore it…
(T/n: 破罐破摔 to smash a cracked pot (idiom); crazy despair in the face of a blemish)
The Elf Druid sneered in order to show a mocking demeanor, but he sighed as if relieved from a burden and made a look of empathy: “I thought I was the only who hated it…” He was also afraid of being laughed at by his friends because a big man is actually afraid of the moth, Blue Sea Blue Sky was also desperately patient, he was seen pulling a stone out of his backpack and muttered to himself: “In the name of nature’s stroke and water —— Lease!”
A square of transparent boundary envelops both them, which magically isolated the scaly powder of those moths. What’s even more magical is that this boundary will move along with Blue Sea Blue Sky.
“What kind of skills is this?” Even Falling To The Silence who well-informed person was greatly surprised.
“Hehe, this is an isolated boundary, can isolate some negative effects, one of the Druid’s skills, because it can’t block direct attacks, so it’s considered by everyone as a good-for-nothing skill.” Blue Sea Blue Sky explained with a smile.
“No…it’s not good-for-nothing…” Black Scorpion Scarred Mark was thoughtfully thinking, Lost Temple won’t create useless skills, it’s just that players didn’t understand its proper use, just as he should have mastered the skills of the simple elements in the first place, it was obviously trash can’t be anymore trash, but once you found the way to play it, it can be turned into magic.
This boundary can isolate all the bad effects outside the attacking skills… Keenly associated the difficult situation of the road to Resiutta when they face the mental control skills of the banshee Flora —— If there had been this isolated boundary at the time ….. Although these people are not of high level, but their characters are excellent and even the skill is very good, if they could join the Light and Shadow City, it’s definitely a good help. Black Scorpion Scarred Mark and Falling To The Silence glanced at each other, both of them have recruited them in their hearts.
“Be careful!” The Battle of The Sky exclaimed to awaken the two men from contemplation, Falling To The Silence agilely pulling Blue Sea Blue Sky to the left, Black Scorpion Scarred Mark subconsciously pulling out the feather arrows on the short bow and shot it out to the monster.
Even the green-rank short bow and the most common wooden arrow bought in the store did not use any skills, but Black Mark is a player of more than level 100 after all, the 75-level moths wouldn’t even make it and instantly second killed by the feather arrow.
“Powerful…” I Don’t Love ChangEr looked at Black Scorpion Scarred Mark’s eyes suddenly hot up. The eyes are always hot, they have the same archer profession, he can see that the precise arrow technique that the other side shot on the moth’s head was absolutely extraordinary.
Black Mark has some headaches, I Don’t Love ChangEr’s eyes look like the fanatic look that was revealed when Six Way of Reincarnation took his elemental arrow —— He had a very good impression of the archer, if they were in usual time he will certainly teach the other person skills without hesitation, but now…
Pretending not to see the other’s expression, Black Scorpion Scarred Mark look back at Blue Sea Blue Sky. “Are you all right?”
“Nothing, thank you.” He smiled gratefully towards Black Mark and Silence, the elf Druid was very glad in the heart, if there were no the two of them, he must have been fanned back to the resurrection point with one wing of the moth just now.
“Everyone be careful a little.” The Battle of The Sky turned around to deeply look at Black Scorpion Scarred Mark and Falling To The Silence, then turned his attention to another giant moth. This moth is actually not very aggressive, it’s just that the falling scale powder is very annoying, it will randomly reduce the player’s attack power, defense power, hit rate, and dodge rate by half.
Even if they are not in a team, the cooperation of the five people is very tacit, although their speed is slower, but they also went into the hinterland of the woods with safe and sound.
Falling To The Silence suddenly stopped his footsteps and looked back at Black Scorpion Scarred Mark, the latter also showed a solemn expression on his face. The two men were keenly aware of the danger and they were approaching step by step.
