Blue Sword

Chapter 24 Dream Tapir

From the appearance, this island looks like an ordinary uninhabited desert island. There are mountains in the center of the island and lush woods outside. What's weird is that there are no birds or insects in the woods, as if they have fallen into some weird dead silence. There is only the sound of the sea breeze blowing through the leaves, which looks mysterious and unusual in the night.

"Everyone, please pay attention. Next, I will introduce these rules." Asik clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention.

"Xiaben?" Good student Nora raised her hand, "Excuse me, what is next book?"

"Let's first clarify a concept." In order to make his next command smoother, Asker decided to instill some "player common sense" in everyone. "During the mission, we may explore some dangerous areas, so we are required to remain vigilant throughout the process and Adhere to the rules of team combat, we call these dangerous areas 'dungeons'. The act of entering the 'dungeon' is called 'downloading'."

Strange noun... Everyone looked at each other and remembered it silently in their hearts.

"Be careful about the difference between mobs and BOSS when you download the game." Asker continued to popularize professional terminology, "Mobs are weak enemies. BOSS are powerful enemies. A dungeon often consists of several BOSSs and many mobs. Composition. The standard for fighting mobs is efficiency and pursuing no damage, while the standard for fighting BOSS is to protect yourself. Of course, the most important thing is to obey orders and follow instructions. Do you understand?"

"Understood." Everyone agreed sparsely.

"Medea." Asik snapped his fingers, "Open the team communication channel."

"Communication channel?" Medea wondered.

"Build a psychic link with me and others," Ask said.

Medea curled her lips and established a spiritual link with everyone. Immediately everyone started chatting online:

"Is this psychic communication?" Nora's voice rang in everyone's mind, "Really! I just thought about it and the voice automatically rang in my mind!"

"I'll give it a try too!" Eleanor followed through the telepathic communication, "Hello, Nora, how are you?"

"I'm fine!" Nora responded.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ah ah ah ah a passing aa ah ah problem." Peggy started to refresh the screen.

"Stop arguing!" Medea said angrily, "Too frequent communications will place a huge spiritual burden on me!"

"Everyone, keep quiet. Private chats are prohibited in the team communication channel." Asker said, "If anyone disobeys the instructions, Medea, you will ban her...that is, cut off her link."

Suddenly there was silence on the channel.

"That's it." Asker said, "Eleanor, take the shield and walk forward. Paige is on the left, I am on the right, Medea and Nora are in the middle. Once they encounter the enemy, Medea will cast the shield first. The collective mind suggested that they should try to direct the attack towards Eleanor. Eleanor should not think about counterattack and concentrate on blocking with the shield."

"Peggy takes a roundabout route from the left to kill the enemies, giving priority to those without armor or light armor. Leave the heavily armored enemies to me. Nora will pay attention to the battlefield situation throughout the whole process, focusing on taking care of Eleanor and restoring health in time. Do you remember everything?"

"No." Everyone shook their heads.

"Then I'll say it again..." Asik couldn't laugh or cry. These are very simple dungeon knowledge. If you are a player, you don’t need to talk nonsense. Unfortunately, these girls in the team are all newbies. He repeated it twice more, and everyone finally understood.

The one with the best defensive equipment in the team is Eleanor, so the task of rushing ahead to attract attacks is left to her. In order to ensure that the attack will not go off and hurt others, Medea needs to continue to exert psychic suggestions (also known as pulling directed hatred).

Without having to worry about being attacked, Asker and Peggy can concentrate on output, one attacking light-armored enemies and the other attacking heavy-armored enemies. Nora is responsible for healing and restoring blood. This is the so-called pentagonal combat model.

"Let's set off once we remember it clearly!" Asik waved his hand, "Speed ​​up and move!"

So everyone set off in confusion. The reason for the chaos is that the formation of the team is not strict, and people often walk too fast or too slow and fall behind. If the opponent is a team of professional players, they can basically seize the opportunity and make a surprise attack to penetrate the formation and isolate the team members.

However, compared to ordinary players, the discipline of girls is still much higher. As for the NPC mercenaries in this world, it is even more incomparable. Do NPC mercenaries have any tactical concepts? This is still a problem.

Entering the woods, everyone looked around cautiously and nervously. Since it was just before 4 o'clock in the morning, the places deep in the woods that could not be illuminated by oil lamps were shrouded in deep and thick darkness. For a while, everyone even felt like they were fighting against each other.

However, seeing the calm and composed behavior of team leader Aske, everyone felt a little more at ease. At this moment, a gunshot suddenly sounded.

Asker didn't know when he had pulled out Aphrodite and pulled the trigger behind the tree. A shrill scream sounded, and a certain figure was knocked out.

It was a transparent monster. After being hit by the bullet, it began to bleed, and its figure gradually emerged. It has a body shape like a porcupine, with curled ears and long thorn-like hair all over its body, but its mouth is a long and tapering tube, curled and tightened like a whirlpool.

"Everyone, be careful, this is a dream tapir!" Medea warned in the channel.

Eleanor shuddered immediately. She recalled the legend her father had told her when she was a child. It was said that this invisible supernatural creature would sneak into people's homes in the middle of the night and suck out people's brains with a sharp nozzle.

Sometimes the victim will be awakened from sleep, but although he is conscious, his body cannot move, and he can only realize that he is probably being suppressed by some invisible monster.

"Eleanor charges with a shield attack, Peggy goes around and stabs in the back, and Medea uses hints!" Askew immediately gave the order.

Eleanor raised her shield and charged forward. Under Medea's suggestion, the Dream Tapir also quickly turned its head towards Eleanor. Its long curly mouth suddenly straightened out like a chameleon and hit Eleanor's steel shield hard. .

The force of the long mouth popping out was so great that Eleanor was even knocked back slightly, and the steel shield almost came off. The next second, Peggy appeared behind it at a speed that was almost flashing, and the dagger stabbed sharply at its buttocks.

The sword penetrates the flesh, and blood surges like a fountain. The dream tapir stood up with the stinging spines all over its body when it was in pain, and suddenly turned around and bit. However, Peggy had been taught the essence of agile output, which was to "succeed in one blow and move immediately." At this time, it had already run far away, without even taking the dagger inserted into its body.

"Eleanor moves forward, the others move back, Medea keeps her spiritual cues!" Asik said quickly, Aphrodite fired three shots in his hand, using new pain to force the dream tapir's attention back.

Eleanor took the opportunity to bully her, using her shield in her left hand to block the collision with her shoulder, knocking Meng Tapir's head back. The spear in her right hand rushed out like lightning and pierced the opponent's soft abdomen.

There was another loud bang. The dying dream tapir popped out its sharp beak again and collided fiercely with Eleanor's shield. At the same time, Peggy had rushed behind Meng Tapir, drew out her dagger and stabbed her with her backhand.

The dream tapir, covered in numerous sores, was finally drained of its last bit of blood and collapsed to the ground whining. The light blue extraordinary power emerged from its body and disappeared - it was automatically absorbed by the five people present nearby and turned into everyone's experience points.

After winning the first battle, the girls were relieved and excited because it was the first time they successfully killed an extraordinary creature. Nora was the first one to rush forward, taking pictures of Mengtair's body with her mobile phone.

"Can I post it on social media, Ask?" She turned around and asked Ask, her big eyes full of hope.

"Shoot it." Asike couldn't laugh or cry. How come these girls’ brain circuits are completely different from those of players? Shouldn't it be checked for drops as soon as possible?

"It would be great if it were in my father's territory." Eleanor said regretfully. "Uncle John can make a specimen of it and hang it on the wall of the inner hall of the castle as a trophy."

"It would be wasted if it were made into a specimen," Asker said. "The spiritual material on the Dream Tapir is the skin at the bottom of the longest thorn on its back. The color will be lighter than other parts."

"I saw it." Peggy said, pulling out the dagger, grabbing the longest thorn of the dream tapir, cutting off the skin and installing it.

Nora had already taken a photo, which was a picture of Meng Tapir giving a victory sign to the corpse. It was uploaded to CM's social circle, and people quickly started to like it.

"Our newcomer is very powerful. He killed extraordinary creatures at level 1? Or is he a dream tapir?" a user from the Life Sect left a message.

"Nora? Where have you been? Our dad is so angry that he hasn't even called home for so long!" This message seems to come from her sister, whose nickname is "Chenxi's eldest daughter Kapasi" Lin".

"Dream tapir? Could it be someone who met the dream paradise?" This message was sent by Killian Bonnet.

Nora was about to ask what "Dream Paradise" was, but Killian replied: "If it is confirmed that this dream tapir is not wild, I suggest you run away quickly. The Dream Paradise gang is looking for the fragments of Paradise Mountain They are all looking for madness, biting and killing like mad dogs. You can’t afford to offend them. /Light the wax/Light the wax.”

"Asker, is Dream Paradise some kind of secret organization?" Nora raised her head and asked Asker in confusion.

"It is a secret sect that controls the dream sequence. It has the bloodline 'Dream Angel'." Asker said, "The dream sequence is the natural enemy of the desire sequence. Medea will have to be careful later."

"???" Medea was stunned for a while, and then suddenly said, "My mother seemed to have warned me before that I must be careful of the extraordinary beings in the dream sequence outside."

"Queen Mother?" The other girls turned around after hearing this.

"Ah, no." Medea said casually, "I meant mother... it was just a slip of the tongue. Then again, what should we do if it really is someone from that dream paradise?"

"What else can we do now that we've already finished the battle?" Ask crossed his arms and said, "Just reject it as the BOSS. Let's review this battle first. There are still many problems."

He walked to the place where Meng Tapir first hid, behind a big tree, turned back and said to everyone:

"I fired the first shot. The question is... why didn't Eleanor, who was walking at the front, notice?"

"Ahem." Eleanor said with some embarrassment, "It's hiding in a great location. It's covered by trees and can't be seen clearly at night. Plus, it can be invisible."

"I really can't blame you." Asker said, "Eleanor's mission is mainly to focus on how to prevent sneak attacks from around. Otherwise, if you are killed at the beginning, there will be no subsequent copies. For those who have not launched Attack but ambush enemies, unable to devote more attention to discovering them.”

"Nora, write it down." He stared at Meng Tapir and said, "Our team needs a scout next."

"Is this a scout?" Nora wrote in a swish manner, "We need a character who can detect the enemy's situation."

"You can be a ranger, a thief, or an assassin. They are responsible for controlling the entire battlefield situation and providing an early warning mechanism for the team." Asker said, "The second point is that one of the problems exposed in this battle is that our output is still too weak. "

"The attack of the Dream Tapir is very explosive, which means that when Eleanor uses the shield to defend, she cannot counterattack at the same time. Paige is an output of the agility system, and the output curve has ups and downs, plus my pistol firepower The lethality is still weak. If we can have another output, then when Peggy attacks from behind in the first round, we can attack from the front and back, coordinate the fire, and the killing time can be doubled."

"So we need to find an output, right?" Nora also roughly knew that "output" means a person who causes harm. "What kind of profession is needed specifically?"

"For a creature like the Dream Tapir, one more gunner is enough. I mean a professional gunman." Asker said, "If the Dream Tapir's blood is thicker, what we need may not be a gunman, but a melee fighter." Samurai need to be equipped with armor-piercing weapons such as thick axes or maces.”

"Then recruit another gunman, a melee armor-piercing warrior." Nora quickly wrote it down.

"In rare cases, if the enemy's physical defense is very high, such as a ghost, then we need an arcane mage." Asker concluded, "Before the roles are filled, I can take on the role of gunner, and the mage can be played by the United States. Dia is also in charge, and the focus is to recruit thieves and armor-piercing warriors.”
