Chapter 134 Determining The Direction
"What do you think?" Lin Luo asked.
"Of course we have to change the route. If nothing else, we have made such sufficient preparations to go out. We can't just take two trains and go to the outskirts of a dark night forest."
"No matter what, we have to leave the reputation of our Wuyou team in this half."
Su Junjie said, drawing a big circle on the map with his finger.
"I agree." Wang Zhiyu looked at the circle drawn by Su Junjie with satisfaction. There were several places written about being rich in medicinal materials.
"What about you?" Lin Luo looked at Xiao Yutang again.
Xiao Yutang was not used to being stared at by Lin Luo's beautiful eyes.
Her cheeks turned red visibly, and she stammered: "I have no objection. My dad told me to listen to you when I went out."
"In this case, we will not choose the route set by Deputy City Master Xiao."
"Based on our current strengths, it seems like a good choice to set our next target here."
The place Lin Luo pointed at was called Ningcheng.
The map introduces that this place is desolate, with many monsters, and the levels are basically above level 20. There are many factions in the city, and the big and small forces are fighting endlessly. No one can rule this city so far.
It's called Ningcheng, but it's not peaceful at all.
"Why did you choose this place?" Su Junjie was puzzled. He was only level 17. If he were to encounter monsters above level 20, wouldn't he be looking for a fight?
"The higher the level of the monster, the more profit we can make."
"Although this city is chaotic, it is one of the transportation hubs on this half of the continent. If we start from here, it will not be easy for people to guess our whereabouts." Lin Luo explained.
"What you said makes sense. In this case, I agree with your choice. You two little girls, do you have other ideas?"
Su Junjie suddenly stood up, looked down at everyone, spoke in a long tone, and began to act pretentious for no reason.
As a result, even Xiao Yutang got used to him popping up from time to time to cause mischief in a short period of time.
The three of them stood up in perfect agreement, and without even giving him a look, they went to pack their things and prepare to set off.
"I got up late this morning. If we don't hurry up, we won't be able to leave for long before we have to camp again. Let's just eat some bread." After Lin Luo packed his luggage, he gave everyone two pieces of magic bread.
He also took a piece of it in his mouth, and then held the map to draw for a long time, and finally decided on the direction to move forward.
"That's right. We can't reach the next camp until dark, so don't waste time on the way."
Both girls were eating bread quietly, especially Xiao Yutang. This was her first time eating magic bread made by Lin Luo.
The tasteless bread tasted sweet after she ate it, and she felt that it was the first time she had eaten something so delicious.
"Do they have no sense of taste? How can they eat such unpalatable food with such gusto?" Su Junjie muttered and swallowed with a frown.
"Not far ahead, there is a group of mobs that are quite suitable for us. Do you want to go around and kill them?"
Lin Luo couldn't put it down the map in his hand. The content on this map was too rich. With such a leveling artifact, he would have to avoid many detours.
"Go ahead. The mission in Dark Night Forest is not time-limited anyway. At least I have to be level 20 when I get to Ningcheng." Su Junjie swallowed the last bite of bread with difficulty and said with a pinched neck.
Everyone unanimously decided to fight this way. In the first battle of the four-person team, they planned to use the group of lizards in front to practice their skills.
"Hehe, the first battle of Wuyou Team, the battle for fame is about to begin!" Su Junjie yelled, and was the first to rush out.
Lin Luo and the three of them also looked at each other and smiled. Although this boy's performance was second-rate, it somehow made everyone's blood boil. They also quickly quickened their pace and followed him.
"Shh, be quiet."
Su Junjie led everyone to hide behind a small hillside and climbed over the hillside. Lying in the open space in front of them was their enemy this time, the Salamander.
Name: Salamander
Level: Level 19
HP: 845
Attack: 248
Armor: 330
Skills: Fire Bomb, Sacrifice
"The blood volume and armor value of these guys are so high." Su Junjie stretched out his head to observe for a while, and when he came back, the expression on his face was not very good.
"That's nothing. What's even more difficult is that even if you look at these guys lying all over the floor, if you look closely, you will find that there must be companions within the attack range of each salamander."
"In other words, if we attack rashly, we may be attacked by a group of salamanders at any time."
"There are only four of us, so it's a bit difficult to fight a group of them." Lin Luo observed more carefully and discovered the biggest problem in this battle.
"We need to find a breakthrough point. Let's take a closer look and see where the best choice is to start."
"Look there, if we attack that salamander, we will only attract another one at most, so we can open an opening for attack."
Xiao Yutang was indeed the archer with the best eyesight. She discovered the breakthrough point Lin Luo mentioned at a glance.
"Where? Is it that end? Or that one?" Su Junjie immediately came over. He stretched out his fingers and pointed here and there, but he couldn't find the target Xiao Yutang mentioned.
"Are you talking about the one with half of its horn broken and one eye blind?" Lin Luo followed Xiao Yutang's gaze and immediately found the target.
Not only did he discover it, he also saw several features of the salamander.
Xiao Yutang glanced at Lin Luo in surprise. She didn't expect that Lin Luo not only had as good eyesight as her, but also had an even more meticulous observation ability.
"Yes, it is lying alone in the most remote corner. If you attack from this direction, you will at most attract the one behind it. After killing them both, the several salamanders in this area will no longer attack each other. It’s within range, we can slowly lure them out and kill them.”
As an archer, Xiao Yutang is very good at analyzing battles that require attracting monsters.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's get going now." Su Junjie became more energetic. "Let you see how the future God of Knights fights."
With that said, he stood up from behind the hillside, reached out and grabbed the void, and a sledgehammer appeared out of thin air in his hand.
To be honest, his appearance is still somewhat handsome, if Lin Luo hadn't said "be careful of being discovered" behind him.
The middle-secondary position that Su Junjie thought up with great effort only lasted for less than a second, and then he lay down in embarrassment under everyone's contemptuous eyes.
He dragged his precious sledgehammer and sneakily touched in the direction of the breakthrough target.
"I lured it over."
After finding a suitable location, Xiao Yutang, who had the longest attack distance, took the initiative to take on the task of attracting monsters.
I saw her raising her long bow and shooting an arrow forward.
The long arrow hit the salamander's forehead without missing a beat.
Su Junjie was just about to cheer for her, but there was a clatter and the long arrow fell to the ground, causing -1 damage to the salamander.
"Miss Xiao, you are looking down on me too much. If you want to attract the monster, you should use a skill. I can guarantee that it will attract its hatred after it comes over."
"Look what you've done now. The salamander didn't even raise its eyelids. It probably thought it was bitten by a mosquito."
Su Junjie was enraged by this arrow, and it was fired with a crackle.
Xiao Yutang stuck out her tongue in embarrassment and said apologetically.
"Sorry, I miscalculated. I didn't expect that I couldn't break through its defense. I'll try again with my skills."
"I promise nothing will go wrong this time."
After saying that, Xiao Yutang raised the long bow again.
This arrow shot out with bright power and struck the salamander's forehead again.
The dozing Salamander was awakened by a sudden sting.
It shook its head and threw away the long arrow that was dangling on its forehead, and then opened its eyes to see who had the courage to sneak attack on it.
The one-eyed salamander opened its eyes and saw a small figure in front of him, making some strange gestures towards him. Although he didn't know what he meant, a burst of anger came out of his heart for no reason.
"Damn little bug, how dare he despise me."
Salamander stood up and shortened the distance between him and Su Junjie in just two steps.
I saw fire starting to flicker on the broken corner of its forehead. Then it lowered its head and a fire bomb was shot at Su Junjie from the broken corner.
Su Junjie's body flashed with white light, and Wang Zhiyu had already put a protective light shield on him.
The three of them all retreated a distance, just waiting for Su Junjie to receive the Salamander's attack before taking action.
Su Junjie screamed and smashed aside the fire bomb that came to him with a hammer, and then let the remaining power of the fire bomb hit the light shield while he rushed to the Salamander's feet with the sledgehammer.
"Heavy hit!" With one move, Su Junjie triggered the stun effect of the skill.
Salamander immediately stood there unable to move, and Lin Luo and the others took this opportunity to attack.
However, this salamander had such a high armor value and a lot of health. The stun period of just a few seconds was only enough to knock out half of its health. Only after it returned to normal did Su Junjie begin to feel the pressure.
He first blocked an impact from the opponent's broken horn, and then withstood the second fire bomb. Then, he saw the angry salamander raising its head, with a new attack brewing in its open mouth.
"Be careful, it's going to use the sacrifice skill."
Su Junjie found that the blood volume of the salamander in front of him suddenly decreased a lot, but its body became larger and its skin showed a strange dark red color. He guessed that this guy was going to increase his attack.
Lin Luo and the others naturally discovered the changes in the salamander at this moment, and immediately increased their output, trying to kill the salamander before it released its ultimate move.
Lin Luo's ice arrows hit the salamander one after another, but the freezing effect that usually appeared was not obvious at this time, and the salamander's attack was not interrupted.
"Arrow of Light." Xiao Yutang shouted.
The power of the holy light in her body suddenly surged, and a long arrow composed of the power of the holy light slowly condensed and took shape. Under Lin Luo's curious eyes, it shot out in the direction of the salamander.
The long arrow passed over Su Junjie's head, picked up a few strands of his hair, and then, with his surprised gaze, inserted straight into the salamander's bloody mouth.
The big move that was about to take shape was suddenly penetrated by Xiao Yutang's arrow.
Not only did the Salamander fail to unleash its most powerful attack, but it was shot through the throat by a long arrow.
Blood gushed out from its wound. Even though it was unwilling to give in, it twitched a few times and fell to the ground, leaving only two items behind.
"Awesome!" Lin Luo gave a thumbs up.
Xiao Yutang smiled shyly, and then said a little embarrassedly.
"The cooldown time of this skill is one hour, and I can't use it anymore."
Lin Luo almost choked at her words.
"This has just begun, and you've already used your ultimate move?" He was very puzzled.
"I saw it was going to use its big moves, I was afraid that everyone would get hurt..." Only then did Xiao Yutang realize that he seemed to have made a mistake again.
"What's wrong? What are you talking about?" Su Junjie had already picked up the things on the ground and ran back.
He handed the thing in his hand to Lin Luo.
"A piece of skin and a lizard horn, do you want it?"
"Grinder the lizard horn into powder and you can make medicine. Give it to me." Wang Zhiyu stretched out her hand to them very calmly.
Lin Luo put the lizard horn on her hand, and then looked at Xiao Yutang, who was standing aside in frustration.
"It's not a big deal. The three of us have been working together for a while, so we know each other's strengths. You just joined, so it's normal to be a little nervous."
"Don't worry, even though this guy is usually careless, he is still very reliable in battle."
"The same goes for priests. Their healing abilities are quite good. You can try to trust your teammates more."
For the next battle, Lin Luo must help Xiao Yutang integrate into this group as quickly as possible, so that the combat efficiency can be improved and problems like today will no longer occur.
"Yes, I understand." Xiao Yutang nodded.
"What happened?" Su Junjie was still confused.
"It's okay, I just used my ultimate move." Lin Luo said in an understatement.
"It's a small thing, it's a big move, just cool it down."
"And the arrow you shot just now almost took away a handful of hair on my head."
"Yes, very impressive!" Su Junjie also gave her a thumbs up.
Xiao Yutang couldn't help but be amused by him.
"Then how about I aim at the target next time and let you feel the thrill of a cold scalp?"
Su Junjie's expression changed drastically and he immediately began to please the other party.
"No, my eldest lady, please feel sorry for my hair."
Seeing that Xiao Yutang didn't lose his temper because of what he said to her, Lin Luo finally felt more at ease with the new team member.
It seems that the days to come are still worth looking forward to.
