"Ah! Be careful!"
Someone in the team shouted and a white ball suddenly came from above and then fell on the head of a mage player.
They were standing in the Dark Land now. The environment was gloomy and dark as if it was covered by the thick fog. They didn't need to use the torch now but the visibility was poor as if the sun has set and the darkness fell. This was definitely the Dark Land.
Xiaofeng and other players were standing in the jungle. There were twisted faces on the dark and dry trunks, and the branches were messy.
While they were walking in the jungle, a huge white ball suddenly fell down on the head of the mage player and immediately seckilled him. The player turned into a corpse before even realizing what had happened. His name in the team interface became grey.
"Gee! It's disgusting!"
Everyone was stunned and immediately stopped to look at the white ball. But their faces suddenly turned white while the priest player vomited.
This was a white bug as big as a buffalo! It was writhing around wildly and all the players felt disgusting and terrified.
This was a bad beginning and one of their teammates was killed by the huge bug when they just walked into the Dark Land and all the other players didn't realize what had happened at that time.
It seemed that the fog above the Dark Land was able to weaken their perception. The system map didn't show any traces of the monsters and even Xiaofeng didn't notice it until it fell down on his teammate.
"Priest! Please add a BUFF to me! I'm going to kill it!"
The leading warrior player at level 14 also felt sick after seeing this fat worm, but he was eager to seize this opportunity to show off. Therefore, he immediately took out his weapon and shouted to other players. It seemed that he wanted to confirm that he was the captain of this team.
"Stop fighting with it! Hurry up and run away! You'll be seckilled by it!"
But Su Tingting immediately contradicted him and turned to run without hesitation.
Su Tingting was right. They couldn't even find out its level after using the scouting and even the advanced scouting of Xiaofeng was useless.
Dark White Worm
Quality: Rare
Attribute: Life
Level: ???
Health Points: ??? /???
Attacking Force: ???
Defense: ???
Skills: ???
Introduction: It's a natural creature born in the Dark Land. It was clumsy and liked to hide in the fog to prey on other creatures.
Xiaofeng couldn't find out its level by using the advanced scouting, which indicated that the level of this white worm must higher than 30. Xiaofeng was surprised and suddenly understood why Bishop Kaiser asked him to finish this task. They encountered with such a strong monster in this big area. This task must be difficult to finish.
The story-line task was quite difficult but players usually finished some easy tasks such as purifying the souls and killing the zombies at the beginning. The difficult tasks would appear after the players finished a certain number of tasks, such as 20 tasks.
The major reward for the story-line tasks normally appeared in the most difficult stage, but the ordinary players were less likely to get it. At first, they had to keep on finishing tasks before receiving the most difficult one. But they may not finish the task at last.
Other players must have finished enough tasks and satisfied the requirements before triggering this one. But as the Archbishop and the player who has opened the story-line task, Xiaofeng could immediately receive these tasks without finishing other missions.
"Hurry up and run away! It's fat and can't catch up with our mount!"
Other players agreed with Su Tingting and didn't follow the instructions of the stupid warrior player.
The other seven players immediately turned to run. The Dark White Worm didn't follow them. It seemed that it had a low transitional speed with its fat body.
But it seemed that this region was the refresh point of the Dark White Worm. Countless worms appeared all the way and everyone started to race away without even looking back at their teammates.
Therefore, they became separated from their teammates after a while.
Riding on seven different mounts, the seven players had completely different transitional speed. Xiaofeng immediately got rid of other players as soon as Xiaoxue picked up speed.
Xiaofeng didn't know what to say. He touched the soft and smooth mane of Xiaoxue and gave it a break. Then he logged on the team interface and asked how things were with other players.
At this moment, they've already far away from the worms and left the jungle without any injuries and deaths.
"Where are you? Please tell me about your position!"
"I've just left the jungle! Where are you! It's dark here and I'm terrified!"
"Don't be afraid! I'll come back for you!"
"Please stay outside the jungle! We'll come back soon!"
The priest player was left behind and she asked for help in the team interface. Other male players got excited and were determined to come back for her.
Xiaofeng frowned in dissatisfaction. There were no coordinates in the Dark Land and he was far away from other teammates. It was difficult for him to go back and meet them but he didn't expect that they decided to went back for the girl.
After thinking for a while, Xiaofeng directly closed the team interface. He decided to finish the task by himself without these Passers-by.
Rustling sound.
He was about to set off but he suddenly heard the rustling sound. Xiaofeng was alert and immediately turned around to look at the direction of the movement.
Something stirred in the grass and then a little girl came out. She also noticed Xiaofeng and looked at him with her dim eyes.
Xiaoxue suddenly trembled and its soft hair on its head suddenly stood on end as if the current passed through its body. It was staring at the little girl alertly.
Xiaofeng also became alert and focused all his attention on this little girl. But he suddenly realized that he couldn't perceive this little girl even though she was standing in front of him!
NPC? No... She was wearing clothes in the real world and looked different from the NPC in the game world! Maybe she was wearing a fashionable dress!
Was she a player? No, this was impossible. This girl must be less than ten years old. Under the minor protection system in the Huaxia District, she couldn't enter the game world as a player.
"Big brother, have you seen my little bear?"
The little girl suddenly asked after looking at Xiaofeng for a while. She looked weak, pale, and thin as if she suffered from malnutrition. She was wearing simple short sleeves and jeans, but the short sleeves had turned whitish from much washing and there were several holes in her frayed jeans.
She looked like a child from a poor family and Xiaofeng didn't believe that what she was wearing was the fashionable dress.
But Xiaofeng didn't answer her question. He was thinking carefully and tried to figure out her identity. Was this a special task or a BUG in the game?
Xiaofeng didn't answer her and the little girl lowered her head with disappointment. She continued to rummage in the dry grass and Xiaofeng heard the rustling sound once again.
Xiaofeng blinked but the little girl suddenly disappeared. He couldn't hear any sounds or find any traces in the grass as if everything was his illusion.
Xiaofeng's eyes narrowed and he was shocked and terrified. He couldn't believe that everything was his illusion but what he saw told him that the little girl didn't even exist.
At this moment, Xiaofeng's eyes glittered with golden lights and he stared at the grass. In an instant, everything, including the swaying curvature of the grass, the airflow trajectory in that area, was reflected in the mind of Xiaofeng.
At this moment, if someone used the medical instrument to test the heartbeat and pulse of Xiaofeng in the real world, they would find that the heart rate of Xiaofeng was 3 times that of the ordinary people!
Xiaofeng's eyes turned into gold and his black pupil completely disappeared. Everything in front of him became static but the little girl didn't leave any traces as if she was the illusion of Xiaofeng.
Xiaofeng didn't even find the most subtle traces, such as changes in airflow.
His golden pupils faded and gradually turned to black, but Xiaofeng looked dignified.
Did he really have an illusion?
Maybe he couldn't find any traces in the game world.
Rustling sound.
The rustling sound came from behind once again. Xiaofeng immediately turned around and fixed his eyes on the girl.
"Ah! What are you doing? You scared me!"
But it was Su Tingting who was riding on the grey wolf. She patted her ample breast and complained to Xiaofeng. She seemed to be terrified by him.
"Why don't you stay with your teammates?"
Xiaofeng was stunned and then asked Su Tingting casually.
"Why don't you stay with them?"
Xiaofeng was speechless and didn't know how to answer her question.
"Let's form a team. We can't finish the mission more quickly with each other's help," Su Tingting said.
"OK." Xiaofeng agreed and formed a team with her. Different from other weak teammates, Su Tingting was skilled and could catch up with him. Besides, they were also acquaintance.
"Your voice sounds familiar and it seems that I've heard your voice before." But Su Tingting frowned and stared at Xiaofeng's mask with doubt.
"Ha...haha, it may be a coincidence."
Xiaofeng suddenly laughed with embarrassment. He was not afraid of being recognized by her, but he was still shocked after hearing her words.
"Maybe... Let's go. We have to finish the task." Luckily, Su Tingting directly ignored this problem and set off with her grey wolf.
"You have a beautiful mount. It must be at a high level." But Su Tingting was talkative when she playing online games and Xiaofeng had known her habit when he worked as a servant in the internet bar. Not surprisingly, she immediately asked questions about Xiaoxue after a while.
"Yes. It's an excellent mount," Xiaofeng answered casually.
"It's no match for my wolf." Su Tingting patted the head of the grey wolf with complacency.
"Dahei is a rare mount! It used to be a strong BOSS and I've spent a lot of time taming it!"
Xiaofeng was speechless. He touched the head of Xiaoxue to comfort it and didn't want to criticize the name of the wolf.
