Chapter 238 A Trustworthy Teammate

Chapter 38 A Trusted Teammate

"Why are there traces of fire here?" Ye Ci raised his head again, carefully observing the black traces behind the peeling wall, which seemed to be a large area, and then it was covered by the wall.

"There should be an institution nearby, but according to the current environment, this institution should have been abandoned for a long time."

"Abandoned doesn't mean it can't be used." Ye Ci also observed around the stairs, and suddenly she found that the oil paintings in the stairway seemed to be a little too low, and these oil paintings seemed to be compared with the dilapidated traces of the palace. Some are too new.

"The mechanism is behind the painting." The two said the question almost in unison, and then they looked at each other and smiled.

"Now that we have found the mechanism, how do we get there?" Fleeting Nian's question makes sense. Although the hunter can bury the mechanism, there is no way to find the mechanism box and dismantle the mechanism.This kind of work is done by thieves in the team.

Because thieves have a higher perception than all professions, they can often feel unusual system prompts. Just look for the prompts and you will find the mechanism box very quickly, but you need to pay attention when dismantling the mechanism box. Thieves with insufficient dexterity can easily dismantle the mechanism. Not only will the dismantled mechanism not lose its function, because the explosion of the mechanism box will also affect the blood volume of the thief. Therefore, dismantling the mechanism is a technical activity. However, it is impossible to do a job like a hunter who digs and doesn't bury it.

There is no way to dismantle the mechanism, and it will be a troublesome thing to pass smoothly.

The length of the entire building is about fifteen or six yards, but counting the murals on the walls, there are as many as six, which shows that there are at least six trap openings within a distance of fifteen or six yards.Moreover, according to the current environment, these organs are all fire-breathing organs.

Wasoko's map is a sixty-level copy.In the stairway, which is fifteen or six yards long and less than five yards wide, there are six openings for fire-breathing traps. Once the traps are drawn out, Liu Nian and Ye Ci don't even want to go all over them, and they can't escape at all.Fleeting Nian is a player from the Western Continent, even if she dies, it's okay, but Ye Ci is different. She is a player from the Eastern Continent, if she dies in this place, the running of the corpse is a headache.

Ye Ci thought for a while, and suddenly had an idea, she took out two three-clawed cat's claws from the package, gave one to Liu Nian and said, "Try this."

Fleeting Nian took the cat's claw, weighed it in his hand, and looked at Ye Ci with interest: "Is this done by engineering players from your mainland?"

"Yeah." Ye Ci looked at the length of the cat's claw in his hand, compared the distance from where he was standing to the railing opposite the stairs on the second floor, and felt that it should be enough, so he began to shake the cat's claw's head Aim at the opposite railing and throw it over.

The cat's claw seemed to have life in Ye Ci's hands. It drew a straight line and hung neatly on the opposite railing.And when the cat's claw flew over the stairway, six huge flames shot out from the back of the oil paintings, and those beautiful oil paintings turned into ashes in an instant.The huge damage can be imagined, if it is Ye Ci and Fleeting Years flying past at this time, I am afraid that they will be on the way by this time.

Ye Ci pulled the tail of the cat's claw, although the huge flame couldn't burn her, but it also made her feel the threatening heat wave rolling towards her.Just when she wanted to raise her hand to cover her face, she saw a figure standing in front of her.

"Stand back a little bit, I'll come first." With his back to Ye Ci, Liu Nian began to shake the cat's paw in his hand.

"Let me go first, have you never used cat's claws before..." Ye Ci looked at Liu Nian's straight and strong back, and felt that letting Liu Nian try for the first time was almost like letting him die.

Fleeting Nian just turned half of his face to look at Ye Ci, then stretched out his hand and pushed her aside.Before Ye Ci could refuse, the cat's claw in Liu Nian's hand had already flown out, and it hung firmly on the railing opposite the staircase.Liu Nian took two steps back by pulling the tail of the cat's claw, then lowered his center of gravity, quietly observing the flames that were constantly spraying out.

The flames of this flame mechanism are not irregular.Generally speaking, they will stop for 1 or 2 seconds to rest after spraying continuously for seven or eight seconds. If there is no team of thieves, they will generally use this one or two seconds of rest to find a way to rush over when encountering such a situation.

It's just that if you only rely on two legs, it's still impossible to run fifteen or six yards in one or two seconds.But now that the two have cat's claws on their hands, the situation is very different.

Liu Nian squatted there quietly, with his front legs bent and his rear legs straightened, making a starting posture, which is a posture that hunters often use.If a hunter wants to use balance to roll and bounce, he must use run-up or extremely fast speed to achieve the required inertia, but generally, to achieve such inertia, he must run for a certain distance. However, in the game, in many places Terrain and landforms restrict the way hunters use long-distance run-ups.And hunters also have their own way to solve such constraints, that is, to use the explosiveness of the body as much as possible, using this momentary explosiveness, coupled with other places in the environment that can be used to assist, and finally achieve the required inertia. Then reach the highest speed in the shortest time, and do the superb movements and operations of tumbling, bouncing and leaping beyond the limits of itself.

Liu Nian remained motionless, his eyes quietly staring at the flames sprayed by the flame mechanism in front of him, his muscles were tense under the close-fitting mail armor, like a swift and fierce leopard ready to go, ready to burst out the most terrifying power at any time.Ye Ci, who was standing on the side, looked at him quietly without making a sound. The red fire light shone on the two of them, making the elf's unique white skin tinge with a little blush.

Fleeting Years is calculating the most accurate take-off time.

Although the spraying and resting times of all the flame organs are similar, there are still some subtle differences, such differences ranging from 0.5 seconds to two seconds.This time is indeed very, very short, but sometimes such a short time can often determine whether a person's life still exists or whether a mission will fail.Therefore, experienced players will definitely not put all the flame traps together, but will separate them out for individual analysis.

It's as if the exact time of the spraying of this group of flame organs is only seven seconds, and the rest time is [-] seconds. Such a small difference is nothing at all in normal times, but at this moment, it is the key to success or failure.

There must not be any waste of the mechanism rest time of [-] seconds.To use that time to fly over the stairway with inertia, it is necessary to complete several links of take-off dash and inertia utilization before that.The time of these links is different for each hunter according to his own attributes. Generally speaking, this is an extremely precise process. There must be no gaps or delays for a second. Accurate to achieve perfection.

The current quietness of the fleeting year is precisely for the eruption of a while.He's timing his jump.

All of a sudden, Ye Ci only saw Fleeting Nian's body sinking suddenly, and his whole body was shot out like an arrow from the string. Stepping on his foot, the inertia of his body was pulled to the maximum in an instant, and at that moment, the fire of the organ stopped, and Fleeting Nian's body flew out as if he was completely unaffected by gravity.After blinking, he landed firmly on the opposite railing.

And at this time, the flames of the resting mechanism spewed out again, as if what happened at that moment just now didn't exist at all.

The two people looked at each other from a distance through the flame of the organ, it seemed that they were very close, but they were far away.

Fleeting Year's movements are done in one go, so beautiful, even Ye Ci can't help but want to applaud him, this man is really not simple, from the calculation of time to the grasp of opportunities, from the strength of bouncing to the use of inertia, everything is perfect Perfect, his movements are as perfect as if he has trained thousands of times and tens of thousands of times, it is not like the first time he has done it, there is no sense of jerky at all.

Liu Nian stood under the stairs, looked up at Ye Ci who was still standing on the stairs and said: "My take-off action takes [-] seconds, and there are three power points, but male characters have longer limbs than female characters, you It may need four power points, so the take-off time will be a little longer, so calculate it well. The flame-breathing time is only [-] seconds, and the rest time is only [-] seconds. Don’t worry, calculate the timing and jump.”

Ye Ci nodded.As Fleeting Nian said, because of her short stature, her limbs are shorter than Fleeting Nian's. Therefore, Fleeting Nian's three power points are definitely not enough for her, and Fleeting Nian will provide her with all the time she spends. , undoubtedly gave her the best reference. Under such circumstances, she can more easily calculate the time she needs to spend.

Ye Ci stood at the position where Liunian was standing just now, using the same posture as him to prepare to jump, but her body is softer than Liunian, she can press her body lower, so that there will be more jumping when she takes off later. Big explosive power.Before calculating the time, Ye Ci needs to choose four power points first. She looked around her and found that besides the three power points used by Fleeting Years just now, there is also a marble pillar behind her left that can be used as a power point. The second boost point.

After choosing the four power-up points, Ye Ci carefully tested the distance between the four power-up points and the strength he needed, and then pressed his body down again, his eyes fixed on the flame in front of him trap.

Squirt, rest, squirt, rest, squirt, rest.

At this moment, it seemed that all the time was frozen like this, and there was no sound around, Ye Ci just quietly stared at the flame mechanism in front of him, and only the sound of his own breathing and heartbeat seemed to be left in his ears.

Bang, bang, bang.

Her heartbeat was steady and strong, and her breathing was quiet and undisturbed, as if everything was the same as usual.

Everything changes in an instant.Ye Ci suddenly lowered her body, as if a spring had grown under her feet, she bounced up, her left foot kicked back, and accurately kicked to the railing behind her, her body flew fifteen degrees to the left, and At this time, her right foot kicked back again. It was as if she had eyes after she was born, and she accurately kicked on the marble pillar. After the first two assisting points, Ye Ci's body has condensed With a huge inertia, he rushed towards the wall at the entrance of the stairs, and with another precise kick, Ye Ci's body flew towards the last power point.

The flowing clouds and flowing water completed with four assists are as perfect as a gurgling brook.

The flames stopped, and Ye Ci's body seemed to be the most perfect swift, quickly passing through the mechanism and flying towards the railing opposite the mechanism.It looked as if she was about to fly out, but her body jerked in the air, and all of this came to an abrupt end, and she landed steadily, as if nothing had happened.

There is a stunning light in Fleeting's eyes, which are so beautifully done.He couldn't think of, under such circumstances, who else could accomplish all this more beautifully than Young Master You!He clapped his hands without hesitation, and faced Ye Ci with a very approving smile: "Beautiful! So beautiful!"

Faced with such unabashed praise, Ye Ci felt a little embarrassed. You know, according to Chinese habits, few people show their compliments so straightforwardly. She nodded at Liu Nian: "You did a perfect job too. .”

In addition to telling the truth, a large part of this is Ye Ci's feedback to Fleeting Years. After all, Fleeting Years praised her, so it's not good for her not to say something.However, Fleeting Nian was obviously very confident in himself, he nodded with a smile, and accepted Ye Ci's compliment without hesitation: "I did a good job, I will try to do better next time."

With that said, he turned around and put away the cat's paw and returned it to Ye Ci.

But Ye Ci shook her head: "Put it away, maybe you will need it later." Turning around, Ye Ci also put away the cat's paw and put it in the package. However, before closing the package, she saw it in the corner. One thing, my heart moved slightly.He reached out and took it out, and handed it to Fleeting Years: "This is what you dropped last time."

Liu Nian looked at the ring in Ye Ci's hand, it was exactly the ring made by Sunlight in his palm, a good equipment for leapfrogging and fighting monsters.It was a very simple circle, now lying quietly in the palm of Ye Ci, emitting a soft light.

Seeing that Fleeting Years just saw that the ring didn't move, and didn't speak, Ye Ci quickly explained: "I wanted to return it to you a long time ago, but things can't be mailed between the Eastern Continent and the Western Continent, so I kept putting it down. I In fact, I wanted to find a chance to return it to you face to face, but, as you know, when we met, we seemed to be beaten and killed, so I forgot about it. I found it in the package just now, and I remembered it. In order to avoid If I forget again, I will return it to you quickly."

Fleeting Nian seldom heard Ye Ci say so many words at once. He squinted his eyes to look at Ye Ci, his eyes flashed with an unpredictable light, and there was an arc on his lips that looked like a smile but not a smile. He said softly : "Why don't you forget?"

"What?" Liu Nian said in a low voice, Ye Ci couldn't hear clearly, so he asked again quickly.

"Nothing." Liu Nian sighed calmly, then reached out and picked up the ring from Ye Ci's palm, holding the ring, he looked at the red light on the roof: "I just said , this ring is an artifact for leapfrogging monsters, I wonder if it helped you when it was in your hand?"

Ye Ci immediately thought of what happened when she beat up the witch doctor Bru, but at this moment, how could she have the nerve to admit such a thing.She turned her face away slightly, and said bluntly: "I am not slow in leveling, and I have basically never encountered a situation where I leapfrogged to fight monsters."

"Oh?" Fleeting Nian's eyes were already squinted, but they narrowed even more when he heard such words, he nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, the young master is the SOLO king of the Eastern Continent, there should be a way to restrain the leapfrog killing monsters Why didn’t I think about the punishment brought about, I thought that this ring could help you instead of me when I killed the witch doctor Bru, it seems that I was thinking too much.”

Ye Ci turned her face away even further, she even turned her back, and abruptly diverted Fleeting Year's words: "Well, it's getting late, let's search the second floor quickly." Fleeting Nian's words made her I couldn't hold back anymore, how could he see through it?
This dying time, can you be a little stupid, even if you are not stupid, can you pretend to be a little stupid?Is it interesting to say something like this?Is this interesting?

Liu Nian stood behind Ye Ci and looked at her angry back, and felt more and more funny. In fact, he didn't know if this ring was used to beat the witch doctor, Mr. Bru. He just followed Mr. You It's just a casual talk, but I didn't expect to really let myself say it right.Looking at her back that was straight because of embarrassment, Liu Nian couldn't help touching her nose, ah, really, why are you talking about it when you have nothing to do?Young Master You is thin-skinned, if it is other equipment, it will not be so bad, but this is a ring, it really makes people have to think about it.

Looking down at the ring on his hand again, Fleeting Nian suddenly felt that the maker's name was a bit dazzling, if only he was the maker.He picked up the ring, and gently pressed it to his lips, as if there were slender fingers in the empty ring, and kissed him reverently and tenderly.Then, before Ye Ci found out, he put the ring into his bag and carefully treasured it up.

Compared with the quiet first floor, the second floor is much more lively.There are many wandering undead and orcs, as well as some controlled goblin slaves, standing together in groups of three or four.However, it is very simple for two hunters and two pets to clean up this group of monsters.On the side of the stairway, the two met the first goblin slave, who was controlling the flame mechanism. It seems that it has been completely extinguished, and there is no such a fierce posture just now.

While searching for the corpse, Ye Ci discovered that a strange thing had fallen from the body of the goblin slave—the energy core.This energy core is very similar to the energy core that Nicky gave to the two people just now, but the color is not as good as the one that Nicky gave, and it doesn't look bright enough, so it probably doesn't have much energy.And the introduction of the energy core only said that this is a dungeon restricted item and cannot be taken out of the dungeon, and there is no redundant introduction for the others.

"What is this?" Fleeting Nian did not participate in the search for the corpse, so he looked at the energy core in Ye Ci's hand a little strangely, but judging from the appearance and luster of the thing, he still made a bold and accurate judgment : "Is it an energy core?"

"Well, the item introduction says that it is a dungeon-restricted item, and you can't bring out the dungeon. There is no other redundant introduction. I was wondering how this thing is used?" Ye Ci flipped through the energy core up and down, "Is it difficult?" Could it be that it was also mounted on a chariot?"

Fleeting Nian took the energy core from Ye Ci and observed it carefully: "This thing should not be installed on the chariot. The two energy cores that Niqi gave us on the chariot are better than this one." It is big, and the color is good, bright red, you can see that this piece is already a bit dim, it should be impossible to drive the chariot."

"What could that be?" Ye Ci walked around the corpse of the goblin slave, but found nothing in the end: "It seems that there is no machine that can be driven here. It is impossible that this thing is for us to change equipment. Yes."

"Ha, it would be great if this is the case." Liu Nian threw the energy core in his hand to Ye Ci, and continued to walk forward: "No matter what it is, put it away first, let's continue to walk forward, Maybe something will be discovered.”

The two walked cautiously on the second floor and encountered several waves of wandering undead and orcs, but nothing fell.

"It seems that I didn't see any machinery." Ye Ci smashed all the wooden boxes and cabinets along the way, but still didn't see any machinery.

"Don't worry, search all you want. Since you can produce energy cores, it must be useful." Compared to Ye Ci's impetuousness, Fleeting Years seemed much calmer.In fact, emotions like impetuousness rarely appear in Ye Ci, but for some reason, after discussing the issue of the ring just now, her heart has always been restless, and now she even regrets that she has nothing to pay for the ring.Anyway, looking at Fleeting Years like this, there is no shortage of equipment, so why should I return the ring to him, anyway, it is the spoils I captured, so what's the point of returning it to him now?

The more she thought about it in her heart, the more she couldn't calm down. There seemed to be an impatience in her heart, burning all her emotions.But there is no way to say, all the anger can only be vented on the battle.

Liu Nian looked at Ye Ci's uneasy expression and the killing moves she released against all the monsters. He just smiled lightly and didn't say anything. Happy, although he would be very happy like this, but looking at Gong Ziyou's face that was getting darker and darker, he rubbed his nose and felt that it would be better for him to be honest.

Some things can't be rushed. Before there is progress, the best progress is to remain a good teammate.

Suddenly, there was a little fire in front of him, Ye Ci was still rushing forward with his head down, Liu Nian quickly pulled her back.

Ye Ci raised his head and looked at Liu Nian strangely, but was dragged by Liu Nian to hide behind a pillar. He lowered his voice and said, "There should be an ambush in front of you."

Ye Ci poked his head out and took a look, only to see a goblin dressed differently sitting on a wooden box more than 20 yards away. A rabbit, the sizzling oil emerges from the rabbit's body, giving off a tempting fragrance.

The fourth child and the fifth child obviously couldn't stand such a temptation, following the commotion behind Liu Nian and Ye Ci, they wished they could rush up and finish the goblin immediately, and then eat the rabbit on the bonfire.However, Liu Nian and Ye Ci's holding back made them unable to rush up no matter how anxious they were, and could only follow behind them anxiously, moaning and chirping non-stop.

Before Ye Ci had checked the enemy's situation well, the moaning and chirping voices of the fourth child and the fifth child attracted an undead and an orc patrol to surround them.The attack of the patrol soldiers is obviously much stronger than that of ordinary skirmishers. What's even worse is that the orc patrol soldiers are archers, and the undead patrol soldiers are legal professions. These two long-range patrol soldiers are long-range professions. A magic, hit the body really hurts.

Ye Ci and Liu Nian couldn't care less about continuing to observe the lonely goblin now, they could only solve the immediate crisis first.Commanding the two culprits to rush forward to surround the two patrolling soldiers, Ye Ci and Liu Nian kept rolling and dodging the arrows and magics fired by each other, and they were dealt with after a long time.What I didn't expect was that the undead patrol rushed towards the goblin not far away before she died. Although she was killed by Ye Ci and Liu Nian with skills on the way, she still made a sharp sound, which caused The goblin's attention.

"Oops, I was discovered!" Ye Ci's heart sank, and he didn't care about anything else, and immediately directed the fourth child to rush towards the goblin.However, she wasn't nervous. Anyway, the goblin was the only one. Facing herself, Fleeting Nian and two pets, it was really not a threat.And Liu Nian followed Ye Ci and also ran towards the goblin. However, in the process of running, he threw a detection skill on the goblin. When he saw the name of the goblin, his heart sank. .

"No, hurry up and kill this goblin! He will call the police!" Liu Nian directed Xiao Wu to rush up while talking, and the high damage skills in his hand kept throwing towards the goblin!

Ye Ci heard Fleeting Year's prompt, and immediately threw a detection skill at the goblin.

Goblin Alerter: Level 30000, HP [-].
This is just an ordinary monster, but he has a skill that others don't have, that is, to sound an alarm, thereby recruiting a large number of monsters.Whether in the dungeon or in the wild, this kind of monster is actually the most annoying. If you don't cooperate well, you will easily destroy the group under the monsters he recruits.

And the goblin alarmist jumped up without any hesitation after hearing the sharp call of the undead, and jumped towards a huge mechanical clock beside him, stretched out his hand and pressed a red button.It wasn't until this time that Ye Ci discovered the mechanical clock hidden next to the goblin siren. It was hidden so well that if you didn't observe carefully, you wouldn't be able to see it at all!
"Damn!" Ye Ci saw the goblin alerter slapping the button, and couldn't help spitting out curse words through clenched teeth.And the skills in his hand were released faster.In fact, the damage value of the hunter is mainly generated by critical strikes. The damage of the two top hunters is actually very terrible.However, no matter how terrible the damage is now, it is still a bit late, but with a difference of a few tenths of a second, Fleeting Years and Ye Ci still did not catch up with killing the goblin siren before it sounded the siren, and watched him press the siren. It falls down after pressing the button.

If monsters also have feelings, then Ye Ci thought, she definitely saw the mocking smile in the goblin siren's eyes before he fell down.That smile seemed to say that if I died, there would be thousands of others.

This is really not a good premonition, the sharp and ear-piercing mechanical sound suddenly rang out in the second floor of the palace. They were all emitting thick smoke, and many of them were crooked as if they were about to be scrapped. However, they acted unambiguously. With the momentum of outflanking and besieging from both sides, they outflanked Ye Ci and Liu Nian !
"Put the trap, don't be dumped!" Ye Ci had already rushed out when Liu Nian said this. In fact, when Liu Nian started talking, he thought of it, and Ye Ci had already thought of it.For hunters who are also proficient in SOLO and are also good at crisis management, judging what to do in the shortest time is equivalent to finding the greatest chance of survival for themselves at the most dangerous moment.

Two people who are too similar sometimes look like they are looking in a mirror. For example, if someone records Ye Ci and Fleeting Time's actions of setting traps, releasing pets and attacking, even the two of them will be amazed. .These two people seem to be in the illusion of reality on both sides of the mirror, their actions are surprisingly consistent, their consciousness is surprisingly clear, they will never waste a minute or a second on things that should not be wasted, and control the basically panicked scene in the shortest possible time , and then shot and killed the machines that were outflanking the two of them.

The whole process was flawless and breathtakingly smooth.

This is the difference between top players and ordinary players. Ordinary players do tasks, and the dungeon will not give people a strange feeling. Watching their videos is actually like watching themselves doing tasks, and even somewhat boring. tedious.However, watching the video of the focused player operating or downloading the dungeon is completely different. Sometimes watching their neat movements and perfect operations is like watching the data dominated by the top cheats. Every detail is thrilling. , every link is amazing, hearty and enjoyable.

Although there are a lot of them, it is not difficult for two people who have long been accustomed to such dangerous situations.During the whole process, they didn't say a word, but, as if it had been arranged long ago, they turned their backs to each other and only cared about cleaning up the enemies in front of them.

In normal times, one of these two belonged to the Eastern Continent, and the other belonged to the Western Continent. Their relationship was hostile.As a top player, you will never give your back to the enemy. This is the common sense that every game player should learn from the first day of entering the game.However, today, of these two people, one still belongs to the Eastern Continent, and the other belongs to the Western Continent, but they depend on each other in this dungeon, and they are the only teammates who can only be trusted.

Leave your back to your teammates, this is also the common sense that every game player should learn from the first day of the game.

While attacking the robot in front of him, Ye Ci couldn't help thinking that fate is really a wonderful thing.In her whole life, she never thought that she would hand over her back, her life, and the safety of her life to a completely hostile player, to Fleeting Years, but this happened just now.

She remembered what Tan Polang had said to herself on that moonlit night.

Believing, he said, is not a talent but a skill to be learned.So is she learning a skill now, or is she being forced by fate to learn this skill?She has no way of knowing, but, for some reason, at this moment, her heart is peaceful, which is a long-lost feeling.

Ye Ci couldn't even remember the last time he had such peace and stability.

Fate really does trick people.

Ye Ci couldn't help laughing at herself. When she started to learn what trust was, the first person she had to trust was her old enemy. What else in the world could be more mocking than this?

Since there are one or two fewer monsters on the side of Fleeting Nian than on Ye Ci's side, when Fleeting Nian finished cleaning up his side, Ye Ci hadn't finished.So Liu Nian turned around without hesitation and began to help Ye Ci clean up. He stood beside Ye Ci, drew the bow, released the arrow, drew another arrow, put it on the bowstring, opened the bow again, and released the arrow. , the movement was so perfect, so smooth, that Ye Ci who was standing beside him could even hear the buzzing sound of his bowstring trembling.

After the last black-feathered arrow pierced the last robot with a sharp whistling sound, the second floor of the palace finally returned to its original calm.Liu Nian put away the bow and smiled at Ye Ci: "Young master, go and collect the spoils."

Ye Ci turned her head and looked at the peach blossom-like smile on Liu Nian's face, and her mood became slightly better.Regardless of so many grievances and grievances, no matter so many entangled interests, just for this person in front of him, he is a trustworthy teammate.

For a moment, Ye Ci felt that Absalom had arranged for him to follow him in a fleeting time, which in itself was an excellent thing.

Excellent, excellent.
