Chapter 230 Behind the Scenes
The underworld area.
Four floors.
After watching the black hole close, Hades' angry face calmed down, and several movable fingers tapped regularly on the throne.
Ta da da~ da da da~
A cluster of green tentacles appeared on the last obsidian fragment without a flag, and the slimy juice showed a stringy state along the opening of the tentacles. The overall shape looked like a human.
"Lord Hades, why didn't you let me drag him into the obsidian space just now?"
Hades looked at the tentacles inside and shook his head: "He is still useful. I see in him the hope of coming to the wasteland again. If he doesn't make a deal with me, then I'll put on a show for him."
The tentacles seemed to understand, but not quite, they just coiled on the obsidian.
The god of Hades said to himself: "Old-fashioned clones do not have the ability to absorb life energy and become stronger. They can also quickly learn other people's skills and break through my contract blockade to directly summon the evil creatures."
"He doesn't want to believe in me. But after accepting my gift, he can't get rid of his relationship with me, and other gods can no longer get involved."
"Human Alliance, we haven't seen each other for a long time, right? I wonder how many people still remember your old alliance leader."
The God of Hades seemed to have thought of something happy, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"Congressman Ning, one day has passed, and we still haven't received the signal to open the Mingsha area, just like in previous years."
"Well, I understand, let's go to the award ceremony."
Inside the Human Alliance Building in Central City.
Councilor Ning Yu was reviewing documents on the computer while listening to the report from Fei Wu, the head of the alliance mission center for this game.
There are not many surprises about this result.
Fei Wu said with a complex expression: "Member Ning, the energy blockade in this Netherworld area is too powerful. Evolvers of the second level and above cannot enter at all, but the danger level inside is too high. We have already done 5 Years ago, there was still no success. The materials brought by each contestant are very precious, and "
"And the city owners of many cities have already expressed their opinions on our competition. I am under a lot of pressure this year."
Ning Jue put down the mouse and took a sip of tea.
"Then give it another shot. This matter is very important and we must do it. By the way, let everyone pay attention to the traces of the Chaos Sect and be careful of their revenge. Go ahead."
Seeing what the congressman said, Fei Wu could only reply: "Yes, congressman Ning."
Then he went out to wipe his butt.
Walking in the Alliance Building, Fei Wu sighed:
"Well, it's a good thing that I can't come out until I complete the mission. Otherwise, I, the director of the mission center, may be done with my job."
"I don't know why, but the superiors are so persistent on this matter. It is obviously an impossible task. In a world where gods are trapped, what can a group of people at the top of the first order do?"
"They can't handle the chaos cultists from all over the world, so they still go to their base camp."
Shaking his head, he covered up the situation as he had done in previous years to fabricate the true situation of this competition.
After the end time of the game was reached, a call from Feisha City came to the office of the person in charge.
Pu Pingheng asked for news about Cheng Dafu with great hope, but he still heard the same "sorry" as in previous years.
Natural disaster base.
The players retreated from the Red City.
The missiles that suddenly appeared over there blew up all the players. Weapons of this level cannot be carried by the human body.
The third-level monster was also bombed with holes all over its body. Mysterious players were using [Drego's Blood] to treat it, but this skill, which can restore a large amount of health to players, was used on the monster. The effect is much less, probably because the size difference is too big, so many players have to use it over and over again.
Bai Susu also stood on it and released [Touch of Life] over and over again.
Fortunately, the monster that had been permanently summoned was not dead, so Cheng Shaofeng didn't feel so uncomfortable.
"It seems that the third level is indeed what those people said. The essence of life has not changed. They are still quite wary of powerful thermal weapons."
At present, the attack is blocked, so everyone can only come back and discuss it in the long term. By the way, we can take a look at the base's new skills and find ways to crack it.
If the permanent ownership of the giant beast is an unexpected blessing, then these human geniuses from all over the world who were saved by Cheng Shaofeng with all his tricks are the great harvest of his own operation.
"Except for Judgment, there are eight major legacies of the Human Alliance. This time the career library is full! Let's see what good things the players can do!"
The more professions and skills there are, the more combinations players can create.
Cheng Shaofeng and Bai Susu stood on the shoulders of the beast and returned to the natural disaster base.
On the way, Bai Susu's lips never stopped.
Crazy questions.
Like a hundred thousand whys.
"Uncle, are you really an uncle?"
"Uncle, what is your identity? I feel like they all respect you?"
"Good boy. Lord, your father must be very powerful, right? Is this a hereditary system?"
"Uncle, look, they can also summon skeletons and big fat men! I thought you were the only one who could. Who created this skill? Is it easy to learn? Can I learn it?"
"Uncle, this body of yours is more handsome than that one~ Let me ask for one of my sisters, can you transform into various boy shapes?"
Cheng Shaofeng: "."
Arranging the chattering Bai Susu to rest, Zhao Yan also rode back with the shadow guard Cheng Dafu on his horse.
Cheng Shaofeng: "Old Zhao, I was talking about looking for you. Have you arranged for those people to be sent to the hospital? Have you asked No. 0 to treat their injuries?"
The 'Medical Nanorobot' was unlocked in the natural disaster base. It is very advanced and can be saved with just one breath. It will only consume some energy when using it.
Lao Zhao shouted: "Lord, don't worry, they are all sent directly to the hospital, and they are probably being treated now."
Cheng Shaofeng jumped off the beast and said to Bai Susu, "You continue to treat the beast. When it is almost recovered, you can come back to me."
Bai Susu pouted: "Okay."
The hospital building is a building that occupies a central and prime position in the planning of the natural disaster base. Although the current building conditions are very crude, with the presence of medical nanorobots, it is very practical.
Not only to treat players' injuries that cannot be cured by drinking potions, but also to treat ordinary people who rely on natural disaster bases to survive.
Players who have learned [Dregg's Blood] can still play a guest role as doctors to earn some extra money.
Changing into Cheng Dafu's body and walking into the hospital, most of the contestants inside have been treated, leaving only a few seriously injured contestants still receiving treatment.
When Shen Jin saw Cheng Dafu coming in, the worry on his face suddenly turned into a smile.
Fang Lang came over and hugged Cheng Shaofeng: "Okay! You knew you would come out! From now on, you will be my good brother, Fang Lang, for life!"
Long Wenke: "Hahaha! Not to mention Brother Cheng's strength, his courage is really top-notch! If you dare to threaten that kind of existence and still come out intact, I'm not as good as you."
Others said hello one after another, their words full of gratitude.
In this competition, without Cheng Shaofeng, none of them would be able to make it out.
After the greetings, Fang Lang looked worriedly at Cheng Dafu, who was covered in blood, and said, "Brother Cheng, your injury is very serious. You should get treatment quickly."
"It's harmful, it's okay, it's all trivial. I have a special recovery method."
Shen Jin asked: "Brother Cheng, there is one more thing I don't understand. How did the giant beast blocked on the third floor suddenly disappear? This method is too unbelievable."
After Cheng Shaofeng briefly explained the origin of the parchment, everyone suddenly understood.
"This is luck. Brother Cheng is truly the son of luck."
After some exchanges, Cheng Shaofeng said: "This is my territory. You can stay here with peace of mind and wait until your injuries are healed before you leave. You will not be short of food and drink. I am a person who loves friendship the most." Friends! Friends from all walks of life like it!”
Everyone was even more elated when he talked about it, and everyone looked like they had found their soulmate.
With their current injuries, they really couldn't travel far away and return to their own cities, so they all settled down with peace of mind.
After leaving the hospital, Cheng Shaofeng had a successful smile on his face.
"Uncle, I like new skills the most."
"By the way, Fangirl seems to have brought back some general skills. Let's go and take a look."
"Let's change our body first."
The shadow guard left Cheng Dafu's body and stabbed his body riddled with holes.
[Clone Production Warehouse] Over there, a brand new Level 27 Cheng Dafu has been cloned.
Go to the skill wall.
There are still many players here.
This has become the favorite place for players to gather while staying at the base. They study the skill system while eating, and players will fight from time to time.
The fan girl hurriedly brought 6 [general skills] and left.
Cheng Shaofeng took a look.
[Broken Mountain Fist], [Qigong Bullet], [Magic Blade], [Sword and Shield Combo], [Sacrifice], [Rapid Continuous Fire].
Most of them are skills that can be learned at levels 1 to 10, with low level caps and not outstanding numerical values.
For example, [Broken Mountain Fist] is a martial skill similar to the barbarian profession [Cleave]. You can use your fists to create a burst of punches, knocking the surrounding enemies away and causing internal injuries.
But this can only be done with bare hands or with gloves.
How can you fight with someone using swords and guns?
So, rely on the defense.
"[Qigong Bomb] is okay. This should be the first long-range physical skill in the base, right?"
As its name suggests, the skill launches a Qigong bomb to attack the enemy. The impact is quite high. The stronger the force, the stronger the wave it can push.
"If barbarian players absolutely want a long-range skill, they can choose this."
Cheng Shaofeng commented this way.
Next to it, there were indeed several new [Barbarian] players discussing this skill.
"How handsome! Qigong bombs! When I was a kid, I relied on this technique to fight with others!"
"I'm sorry, stop talking, I've already started scratching the floor."
This skill seems to awaken the shameful memory of a certain player's childhood.
In front of the skill wall, the new player 'Zeng and Shenzhuai' shouted loudly: "Brothers! Don't learn the skills on this entire wall! If you don't learn systematic skills, learning this thing is a waste of skill points! Feng Detective The officer said that he has obtained two more flame series skills for the [Judge] profession, which are very powerful. Isn’t it better than this?"
Cheng Shaofeng knew him, the initiator of the theory that "general skills are useless".
Cheng Shaofeng didn't comment on this. Anyway, he learned level 1 skills for free, and his skill points could be increased by swallowing crystals, so he didn't need to be as careful as players.
[Sword and Shield Combo] is a fixed attack skill using a long sword + shield. Limited weapons are more deadly, so they are not considered for now.
[Rapid Continuous Fire] is a technique for using bows and arrows. Cheng Shaofeng feels that this is a bit disrespectful to firearms. Non-bow and arrow enthusiasts don’t need to watch it.
In the end, only two skills caught Cheng Shaofeng's attention.
[Magic Blade], a weapon attack skill with a maximum level of 12, is of the same type as [Rhythm Strike] and [Impact], both of which strengthen normal attacks.
It’s just that this is the spell version.
【Magic Blade】
[Enable your weapon attack to be equipped with a magic blade, extending the attack range. 】
[Default weapon attack skills]
【0/12】
[Next level: 1]
[Energy consumption: 2]
[Length of magic blade: 1 meter]
[Elemental damage: 11]
[60% weapon damage]
[Energy absorption: 30]
[Reduces all enemy resistance by 20% for 3 seconds. 】
[General skills, learnable by all professions]
[Requires player level: 5]
"This skill is very interesting. The damage is not high, but it can absorb other people's energy and reduce all the resistance of the other party. In melee combat, the weapon suddenly becomes longer. It's a bit sinister."
Cheng Shaofeng doesn't have the ability to use this skill at the moment. After all, he has the full level of [Rhythm Strike], which makes it easy to use.
I just simply think this skill is interesting.
"Perhaps some other great players can develop a melee mage style."
The last skill.
【Sacrifice】
[Burn the power of your own life to burn the enemy. 】
【Continuous Skill】
【0/10】
[Next level: 1]
[Reserved energy value: 50]
[Life consumption per second after turning on: 4]
[Action range: 3 meters]
[Physical resistance +5%]
[Causes 45 burning damage to surroundings every second]
[General skills, learnable by all professions]
[Requires player level: 10]
"After turning it on, the whole person will cause indiscriminate fire attacks to the surroundings. Although it consumes a lot of health points per second, it provides a lot of physical resistance, and most of the attacks of creatures or humans are physical damage, which is currently the most cost-effective. Resistant.”
"And this 3-meter range fits the barbarian's [Whirlwind] skill very well. That skill itself also contains fire damage. Hiss~ Isn't this a perfect fit?"
Cheng Shaofeng wanted to ask Demon Fox to match him with a set of Invincible Hot Wheels BD.
Give Shadow Guard some fresh gameplay.
"That's right! Coupled with [Fire Spell], the fire damage is boundless."
The benefits of having more [General Skills] are reflected in the coordination among themselves, and players can even directly use [General Skills] to open up wasteland and upgrade without choosing a profession.
Cheng Shaofeng himself added two general skills learned by Cheng Dafu [Summon Pig Spirit] and [Summon Wolf Spirit].
"Well, there are legal and physical systems, and the summoning system must also be available!"
Cheng Shaofeng walked in the base and found that many players were already experimenting with new skills.
Whether it's the [Broken Mountain Fist] that he thinks relies on the defense, or the [Rapid Continuous Fire] that uses a bow despite having a gun for some reason, or the shameful memory of every boy's childhood [Qigong Bullet], there are players practicing it.
Looking at the smile on the player's face, Cheng Shaofeng suddenly understood.
"In their eyes, this is a game, and whether you are strong or not is not worth the word 'like'."
Not all players are called ‘African Thin Dog’ and ‘Ghost-Faced Demon Fox’.
In the base, 8 [Clone Production Warehouses] were running rumblingly, and more than 80 players who died in the Red City were resurrected one after another. The players stood up in high spirits and discussed how to avenge the past and fight against the Red City again. A little bit scared!
In their eyes, there are only monsters that can be defeated and monsters that can be defeated later. There is no option to defeat them!
"A creature like a player is really full of positive energy."
After saying this, Cheng Shaofeng saw the drum washing machine sneaking into the store, pulled out a pornographic journal from under Wu Jie's seat, gathered his friends, and read it with gusto.
Cheng Shaofeng: "?"
It was getting dark.
Many players who had something to do during the day went offline one after another.
The new players are ready to have a big fight with the ethereals according to the routines planned by the old players.
Cheng Shaofeng, who had been stressed all day, found a comfortable position, lay down and fell asleep.
The Shadow Guard sat cross-legged in the watchtower and closed his eyes.
In the dream, Cheng Shaofeng saw a god of the underworld, with his hair and beard spread out, his body standing upright, with flames rolling all over his body, and the surrounding air was filled with chaotic energy.
"I love to pass on skills in my dreams."
