BXBX NOVEL Chapter 131 - The Mist of War
Xiaofeng was so fast that the other players were astonished. They had lain in wait for Xiaofeng and Su Tingting and used their skills to attack them. This was a successful ambush, so the priest should have been killed within several seconds. However, he had survived and killed two of their teammates!
“There’s something wrong with them! Hurry up and leave this place!”
Although no one knew what had happened, everyone realized that there was something wrong with this player. They immediately turned to run away.
The 15th-level shooter acted quickly. He turned around right away and ran away without hesitation. He was close to the other players, which was dangerous for an archer.
The hunter followed closely behind him, while the mage stopped singing to attack Xiaofeng with a fire snake before turning to run. He hoped that this skill could disrupt Xiaofeng and stall him for some time.
The last wild warrior was also decisive. He smashed his body into Su Tingting and immediately took a few steps away from her when she backed up quickly.
“What’s wrong with this healer? He must be a wild warrior who’s taken the wrong weapon!”
The other four players were running away without even looking back. The healer was impressive. This was the first time they had seen a healer seckill a shield warrior! He had more than 300 points of attacking force. This had to be a system error!
However, they had scarcely run ten miles before a Frost Arrow caught up with them. The wild warrior, who was slower than his teammates, was shot by the arrow. With a cracking sound, a fog formed in his body and his temperature dropped dramatically.
“How dare you lie in wait for us in the wild! Shame on you!”
Su Tingting struck back against them. While riding on the mount, she twisted her slender waist and performed an extremely fast U-turn to fire an arrow on the wild warrior player.
At the same time, a black figure swept over the heads of the players who were running away and stood face to face with them. It was a tall, strong white horse that stepped in front of the other four players.
“We didn’t mean it!”
The leading mage player forced a smile and hurriedly waved his hand.
“-340!”
Xiaofeng hit the therapeutic scepter against his head without even looking at him. In an instant, a huge figure of damages appeared on his head and the mage was seckilled.
“Let’s fight with him! He’s just a priest! I don’t believe he can kill all of us!”
The wild warrior got rid of the fog and rushed over at Xiaofeng after the cooldown time of the charging skill passed.
The shooter and hunter also chose to strike back against Xiaofeng at the same time. Two magical arrays opened and a crocodile and an orangutan pet rushed over to Xiaofeng one by one. Meanwhile, they also used the Triple Shot and Trap of Frost to attack Xiaofeng.
Xiaofeng used the folksy stick to hit him on the head.
“-317!”
The wild warrior was also seckilled by him. Without the priest’s healing ability, ordinary warrior players only had less than 200 Health Points. The wild warrior was killed and turned into a corpse before touching Xiaofeng. His body turned into a white light and disappeared.
“The damage is horrible! Is he an NPC? We must separate to run away!”
The two archers became terrified once again. It seemed that they were fighting against a BOSS. Maybe they had made a mistake and this priest was an NPC.
They were decisive, as they knew very well that they were no match for this priest. They hoped that the two pets could stall him for some time so that they could run away.
Their pets were strong and skilled. The crocodile could bite, while the orangutan possessed a war trampling skill. Both of them were controlling skills, and the HP of the two pets had reached 1,000 points. They were fighting with Xiaofeng desperately in an effort to stall him for half a minute.
However, they had forgotten that Xiaofeng was not alone. Su Tingting was also helping him. Xiaofeng stepped in front of them, barring their way, so they immediately turned around to run. Then, they stood face to face with Su Tingting.
The hunter player immediately froze before running far away from them. The ice was blasted under his feet right before he was turned into an ice sculpture.
He was finished!
This was the only thing he was thinking about. As a hunter, he knew very well that this was the Trap of Frost, which could control the players. He would be killed once he stepped into the trap.
He looked up and saw a black wolf rushing toward him. At the same time, countless arrows were pointed at him.
Xiaofeng immediately ignored this hunter, who was doomed, and turned around right away to follow the 15th-level shooter player. He had to be a lucky senior player.
Xiaoxue had already shaken off the two pets, which were focusing on Xiaofeng, and sped up.
The shooter was indeed a senior player with an excellent blocking ability. The complicated jungle terrain didn’t pose an obstacle to him. Instead, he was quick and agile.
As a golden mount, Xiaoxue was so fast that it could even catch up with Han Feng, who was the most infamous troll in the Huaxia District, let alone this shooter player. It was obvious that he was slower than Han Feng.
“Buddy! Please stop! It’s difficult for us to level up. Please spare my life. It’s all my fault. Please forgive me…”
Xiaoxue caught up with the shooter player as soon as it sped up. He lifted both his hands earnestly in surrender. It was not surprising that he was not as fast as Xiaoxue.
In fact, he was not convinced and was unwilling to admit his defeat. He believed that he might have already escaped if he had been able to ride on the advanced mount during the fight.
“How is the situation in the central area?”
Xiaofeng asked a question instead of killing him immediately.
“We didn’t lie to you. The central area of the Dark Land is covered in that black fog. We arrived here three hours ago from other main cities. We walked around the entire region but found no entrance,” the shooter said honestly.
“Is this a mission impossible?” Xiaofeng asked with a frown.
“We’re not sure. I believe that we can finish this mission since this is a story-line task. However, we have to make some sacrifices and some players have to find the area where there is less fog. Then, a priest with an advanced mount might break into this place with the rare potion they bought in the Treasure Pavilion.”
The shooter was indeed a senior player. He had found a solution after walking around the central area.
“We wanted to take this opportunity and kill players whose teammates were killed after breaking into the central area. We didn’t expect that you’d be a senior player.”
Although the shooter spoke carefully, Xiaofeng didn’t say anything. Then, he added, “More players will take on this task, including the major guilds. It’s impossible for us to complete the mission, but we can become friends. I’ll help you if you face any problems in the future.”
“It seems that you know that it’s difficult to level up. Therefore, I’d better help you return to the main city quickly.”
The shooter stared at him in disbelief as Xiaofeng nodded and used the huge golden hammer against him.
“What are you doing?”
His HP bar was emptied and he was seckilled before he could even finish speaking. As a 15th-level player, his defense was even higher than the shield warrior’s.
Xiaofeng clapped his hands and turned around, only to see that Su Tingting was standing behind him.
“Have you killed him?”
Su Tingting asked. It was obvious that she had already killed the hunter player.
“Let’s go to the central part of the Dark Land to have a closer look. This task is difficult to complete.”
Xiaofeng nodded. If the black fog could reduce the player’s HP by percentage, he also wouldn’t enjoy any advantages. It was hard for them to finish this task.
“Don’t worry. The system doesn’t give any impossible missions. They might have lied to us. How dare they lie in wait for us!”
Although Su Tingting was optimistic, she immediately grabbed Xiaofeng’s arms and became talkative again.
“Master Xiao, you’re amazing! Why do you have such attacking skills? All of them were seckilled by you! I wanted to ask you to add a buff to me to save you, but you killed them without my help!”
They were not far away from the central area, so they saw the place covered by black fog within a few minutes.
The black fog covered the sky and the central area like a natural barrier.
The fog was thick and the visibility was extremely low. Xiaofeng tried to break in, but the system told him that he was under the influence of the Mist of War. His HP would be reduced by 1% per second.
Mist of War was the name of the fog. It was so horrible that Xiaofeng left this place within one minute. It was really dark, so he couldn’t figure out the right direction, calculate the area it covered, or see the environment. There were even undead monsters lying in wait for him. Xiaofeng couldn’t see anything. Thus, he could only leave this place.
“What happened?”
Su Tingting, who had been waiting for him outside the central area, immediately asked him as soon as he left the place.
“We need to try heading in another direction. The fog is thick here.”
Xiaofeng shook his head and increased his HP. He was about to try walking in another direction. The fog might be thin someplace else, and they could walk through this region within one minute.
They started to walk around the Mist of War while they kept trying. They also met other teams of players who all looked depressed and tired. It was obvious that they also hadn’t found the entrance to the central area. However, no one attacked them as they walked together in peace.
“Huh?”
Xiaofeng suddenly narrowed his eyes and stared at a player. An archer was looking at the Mist of War in secret. There were two red words on the archer’s head. He was Han Feng.
Xiaofeng immediately recognized him. Han Feng was the most infamous troll in the Huaxia District, so Xiaofeng had also been deceived by him. It was obvious that he had committed many crimes, which was why his name was red.
